8. Add FOS4 as a member node to the new EG.
For details about adding member nodes to an EG, seeAdding a member node to an encryption
group on page 149.
For details about creating encryption groups, see “Creating a new encryption group” on
page 40.
Moving an encryption blade from one EG to another in the same fabric
In this example, which is represented in Table 17, you have two EGs, each containing two nodes.
You want to move the blade currently located in DCX1, slot 4 to DCX2, slot 3 in EG2.
1. Enter the following command on FOS1 to reclaim the VI/VT WWN base for the encryption
engine to be moved out of the EG.
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --reclaimWWN -EE <DCX1_WWN> 4
When prompted, answer yes.
2. Enter the following command to propagate the change throughout the EG:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --commit
3. Remove the blade from DCX1, slot 4 and plug into DCX2, slot 3.
4. Add the moved blade as a member node to EG2.
Moving an encryption switch from one EG to another in the same
fabric
In this example, which is represented in Table 18, you have two EGs, each containing two nodes.
You want to move FOS2 from EG1 to EG2.
