Chapter 2, Encryption configuration using the Management application
Disk device decommissioning
Under the heading of “Displaying and deleting decommissioned key IDs” on page 87, additional
steps in the procedure have been added that must be performed from the RKM key vault server.
FIGURE 1 Decommissioned Key IDs dialog box
When disk LUNs are decommissioned, the process includes the disabling of the key record in the
key vault and indication that the key has been decommissioned. These decommissioned key IDs
are still stored on the switch. You can display, copy, and delete them as an additional security
measure.
For RKM key vaults, you need to know the Universal ID (UUID) associated with the decommissioned
LUN key IDs to delete keys from the key vault. To delete decommissioned key IDs, you must first
display the vendor-specific UUIDs of decommissioned key IDs for RKM key vaults from the
Management application. You must then remove key attributes directly from the RKM key vault
server.
1. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar.
