Splitting an encryption group into two encryption groups

Splitting an encryption group into two encryption groups
In this example, which is represented in Table 16, you have one encryption group with four nodes
from which you want to remove two of the nodes and add them to a new encryption group.
1. Enter the following command on FOS1 to reclaim the VI/VT WWN base for FOS3:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --reclaimWWN -membernode <FOS3-WWN>
When prompted, enter yes.
2. Enter the following command on FOS1 to propagate the change to all nodes in the EG:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --commit
3. Enter the following command in FOS1 to eject node FOS3 from the EG:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --eject -membernode <FOS3-WWN>
4. Enter the following command on FOS1 to deregister the ejected node from the encryption
group:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --dereg -membernode <FOS3-WWN>
5. Enter the following command on FOS3 to clean up the encryption configuration on the
deregistered node:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg –-reclaimWWN –cleanup
When prompted, enter yes to each prompt.
6. Repeat steps 1–5 for FOS4.
7. Create a new EG on FOS3:
a. Create the group:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --create -encgroup FOS3
b. Set the key vault type. (The same key vault type is used for both SKM and ESKM.)
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --set -keyvault SKM
When prompted, enter yes to each prompt.
