Encrypted Volume and File System v2.2 Administrator Guide (777846-001, April 2014)

File names
When using the default key storage directory, EVFS uses the following directory and file names
to store user keys:
Public Key /etc/evfs/pkey/users/user_name/key_name.pub, where
user_name is the key owner's name and key_name is the key name.
Private Key /etc/evfs/pkey/users/user_name/key_name.priv, where
user_name is the key owner's name and key_name is the key name.
Stored Passphrase /etc/evfs/pkey/users/user_name/key_name.pass.nnn,
where user_name is the key owner's name, key_name is the key
name, and nnn is a number based on system-specific data.
Alternate storage databases and distributed key storage
You can configure EVFS to use different file directories for the user key database that contains the
public keys, private keys, and stored passphrases. The directories can be local directories or remote
directories that are NFS-mounted. You can also configure EVFS to use different database directories
according to the data type (key type or stored passphrase).
