This command creates a new security key for a storage array that has Self
Encrypting Disk (SED) physical disks. This command also sets the security

Syntax
create storageArray securityKey
[keyIdentifier=keyIdentifierString] |
passPhrase=passPhraseString |
file=fileName |
commitSecurityKey=(TRUE | FALSE)
Parameters
Parameter Description
keyIdentifier A character string that you can read that is a
wrapper around a security key.
passPhrase A character string that encrypts the security key
so that you can store the security key in an
external file.
file The file path and the file name to which you
want to save the security key. For example,
file="C:\Program Files\CLI\sup\seckey.slk"
NOTE: You must add a file extension of .slk to the
end of the file name.
commitSecurityKey This parameter commits the security key
identifier to the storage array for all SES drives as
well as the controllers. After the security key
identifier is committed, a key is required to read
data or write data. The data can only be read or
changed by using a key, and the drive can never
be used in a nonsecure mode without rendering
the data useless or totally erasing the drive.
