IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager for System x SEDs - FoD (SKLM - FoD) is an optional feature,
available in System x environments, that centralizes, simplifies, and automates the data encryption key
management process to help minimize risk and reduce operational costs. SKLM - FoD offers a simple
and robust solution for key storage, key serving, and key lifecycle management for self-encrypting drives
(SEDs) in local and distributed System x environments. With the x3650 M5, the Feature on Demand
(FoD) upgrade can be configured with the ServeRAID M5210 and M1215 RAID controllers paired with
SEDs. Table 22 lists SKLM-FoD part numbers.
