• In an environment with a mixed firmware version (FOS 6.2.x + 6.3.0) Encryption Group, the I/O link state reported for FOS 6.2.x nodes is unreachable. During a rolling upgrade from FOS 6.2.0x to 6.3.0, you should see the I/O link status reported as Unreachable when the cryptocfg -show -loc command is invoked. However, once all the nodes are upgraded to FOS 6.3.0, the show command will accurately reflect the status of the I/O Link. The I/O link status while performing the rolling upgrade from FOS 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 can be ignored until all nodes have been upgraded to 6.3.0.

To enable it, follow the procedure described in the SKM user guide, "Configuring the Key Manager for FIPS Compliance" section. NOTE: Per FIPS requirements, you cannot enable or disable FIPS when there are keys on the Key Manager. Therefore, if FIPS enablement is required, HP strongly recommends that it be performed during the initial SKM configuration, before any key sharing between the switch and the SKM occurs.

In an environment with a mixed firmware version (FOS 6.2.x + 6.3.0) Encryption Group, the I/O
link state reported for FOS 6.2.x nodes is unreachable. During a rolling upgrade from FOS 6.2.0x
to 6.3.0, you should see the I/O link status reported as
Unreachable
when the
cryptocfg
–show -loc
command is invoked. However, once all the nodes are upgraded to FOS 6.3.0,
the show command will accurately reflect the status of the I/O Link. The I/O link status while per-
forming the rolling upgrade from FOS 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 can be ignored until all nodes have been
upgraded to 6.3.0.

SKM FIPS Mode Enablement
FIPS compliance mode is disabled in SKM by default. To enable it, follow the procedure described
in the SKM user guide,
“
Configuring the Key Manager for FIPS Compliance
”
section.
NOTE:
Per FIPS requirements, you cannot enable or disable FIPS when there are keys on the Key Manager.
Therefore, if FIPS enablement is required, HP strongly recommends that it be performed during
the initial SKM configuration, before any key sharing between the switch and the SKM occurs.
Initial setup of encrypted LUNs
IMPORTANT:
While performing first-time encryption to a LUN with more than one initiator active at the time, rekey
operations slow to a standstill. Define LUNs for a single initiator at a time to avoid this occurrence.
