2 Steps for connecting to an SKM appliance Registering the SKM Brocade group user name and password The Brocade group user name and password you created when configuring a Brocade group on SKM must also be registered on each Brocade encryption node. 1. From the Encryption Center, select Key Vault Credentials. 2. Enter the Brocade group user name and password. Keep the following rules in mind when registering the Brocade user name and password: - The user name and password must match the user name and password specified for the Brocade group. - The same user name and password must be configured on all nodes in an encryption group. This is not enforced or validated by the encryption group members, so care must be taken when configuring the user name and password to ensure they are the same on each node. - Different user names and passwords can never be used within the same encryption group, but each encryption group may have its own user name and password. - If you change the user name and password, the keys created by the previous user become inaccessible. The Brocade group user name and password must also be changed to the same values on SKM to make the keys accessible. - When storage is moved from one encryption group to another, and the new encryption group uses different user name and password, the Brocade group user name and password must also be changed to the same values on SKM to make the keys accessible. 3. Repeat the procedure for each node. 26 Fabric OS Encryption Administrator's Guide 53-1001864-01
