Create Storage Array Security Key This command creates a new security key for a storage array that has Self Encrypting Disk (SED) physical disks. This command also sets the security definitions and sets the state to Security Enabled. NOTE: Before you create a storage array security key, you must set the password for the storage array. Use the setStorageArray command to set the password for the storage array. Syntax create storageArray securityKey [keyIdentifier=keyIdentifierString] | passPhrase=passPhraseString | file=fileName | commitSecurityKey=(TRUE | FALSE) Parameters Parameter keyIdentifier passPhrase file commitSecurityKey Description A character string that you can read that is a wrapper around a security key. A character string that encrypts the security key so that you can store the security key in an external file. The file path and the file name to which you want to save the security key. For example, file="C:\Program Files\CLI\sup\seckey.slk" NOTE: You must add a file extension of .slk to the end of the file name. This parameter commits the security key identifier to the storage array for all SES drives as well as the controllers. After the security key identifier is committed, a key is required to read data or write data. The data can only be read or changed by using a key, and the drive can never be used in a nonsecure mode without rendering the data useless or totally erasing the drive. Script Commands 147
