Recovery Key Enter
Used to unlock encrypted disks when the system reboots and cannot access any of
the defined keyservers, and recovery keys were defined
encrypt_recovery_key_enter key=Key
Parameters:
Name Description Mandatory
key The 64 character hexadecimal
recovery key
Y
This command is used to unlock encrypted disks when the system reboots and
cannot access any of the defined keyservers. The min_req number (defined during
the encrypt_recovery_key_generate) of Security Administrators must all
successfully enter their recovery key (as presented to them via recovery_key_get)
before the disks can be unlocked. After the minimum required number of keys has
been entered, the storage admin must change the state from maintenance to on via
state_change target_state=on When this command is entered with the machine in
the "On" state, it has no effect, and can be used to check the validity of the
recovery key.
