Figure 231: Storage Encryption page
Use the Storage Encryption page to perform the following tasks:
l Enable Storage Encryption and specify the encryption type (see "Enable Storage
Encryption" on page 357).
l Monitor initial storage encryption process (see "Monitor Initial Encryption" on page 357).
Enable Storage Encryption
To enable the Storage Encryption:
1. Select a encryption type "AES" or "Fujitsu" from the pull down list
l AES: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES: Standard encryption used for
information processing by the US federal government)" is a standardized encryption
method. The ETERNUS CS800 adopt the AES 128-bit encryption.
l Fujitsu: "Fujitsu" is an encryption method which uses a Fujitsu proprietary
algorithm. Compared to AES, its practical security level is almost equal while it
allows faster processing than AES.
2. Click Enable.
CAUTION!
Once encrypted, date on the storage array cannot be changed to non-encrypted
data.
Monitor Initial Encryption
During initial encryption an "Initial Encryption" progress bar is displayed, which informs about
the percentage of data already encrypted.
