786 Implementing the IBM Storwize V5000 Gen2 with IBM Spectrum Virtualize V8.1
However, exceptions exist:
During the migration of volumes from unencrypted to encrypted volumes, a system might
report both encrypted and unencrypted volumes.
It is possible to create unencrypted arrays from CLI by manually overriding the default
encryption setting.
13.8.1 Encrypted pools
See Chapter 4, “Storage pools” on page 143 for generic instructions on how to open the
Create Pool window. After encryption is enabled, any new pool will by default be created as
encrypted, as shown in Figure 13-61.
Figure 13-61 Create Pool window basic
You can click Create to create an encrypted pool. All storage that is added to this pool will be
encrypted.
Notes: Encryption support for Distributed RAID is available in IBM Spectrum Virtualize
code V7.7 and later.
You must decide whether to encrypt or not encrypt an object when it is created. You cannot
change this setting at a later time. To change the encryption state of stored data you have
to migrate it from an encrypted object (for example, a pool) to an unencrypted one, or vice
versa. Volume migration is the only way to encrypt any volumes that were created before
enabling encryption on the system.
