Keys

DXi6900G1/G2

Data-at-Rest Encryption secures all data stored on the DXi6900 G1/G2, including file data and metadata,

configuration files, and the DXi software and operating system (see Data-at-Rest Encryption on page 341).

Data-at-Rest Encryption secures all customer data stored on the DXi6900-S (see Data-at-Rest Encryption

Encryption license. In addition, you must upload a Premium Feature Key (PFK) file for each Array module in

the DXi6900. Contact Quantum customer support to obtain a Data-at-Rest Encryption license. After you

obtain the license, you will receive a License Certificate containing an authorization code.
