NOTES
Encryption groups and HA clusters must be configured before performing any CryptoTarget container
and Crypto LUN configurations.
When adding a LUN to a CryptoTarget container, special attention should be paid to the input format. A
LUN number can be entered either as a 16-bit (2 bytes) number in hex notation (for example, 0x07) or as
a 64-bit (8 bytes) number in WWN format (for example, 00:07:00:00:00:00:00:00). Although the
command does accept decimal input, it is not recommended. The conversion function used to parse the
LUN number converts a decimal number beginning with 0 to an octal, which results in a conversion error.
For example, 035 is interpreted as 29 (decimal), or 0x1D hex, or 00:1D:00:00:00:00:00:00. To ensure
correct conversion to decimal notation, use the recommended Hex formats or make sure to remove
preceding zeros from decimal input.
OPERANDS
The cryptoCfg storage device configuration and management function has the following operands:
--help -devicecfg
--create -container
Fabric OS Command Reference
53-1001764-01
Displays the synopsis for the storage device configuration and management
function. This command is valid on all nodes.
Creates a CryptoTarget container (CTC) for a disk or a tape storage device. The
target device port WWN must be specified and one or more initiator port WWNs
(PWWNs) may optionally be specified. Additional initiator PWWNs may be added
after the CryptoTarget container is created.
Upon commit of a CTC configuration, one virtual target (VT) is created, and for
each initiator that has the access to the target port, one virtual initiator (VI) is
created. These virtual devices are created by logging into the fabric and
registering with the Name Server. Initiator and target must be zoned for NS-based
frame redirection to take effect. Use the nsShow command to verify the creation
of the virtual devices. Use the cfgShow command to view the redirection zone.
This command is valid only on the group leader. The following operands are
supported:
disk | tape
Specifies the type of the CTC as a disk array or tape storage container depending
on the target device. These operands are mutually exclusive.
crypto_target_container_name
Specifies the CTC name for the storage device. The CTC name can be up to 31
characters long and include any alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and
underscores. White space and other special characters are not permitted. This
operand is required.
EE_node_WWN [EE_slot
Specifies the WWN of the node to which the encryption engine belongs and on
which encryption engine this particular CTC is hosted. This operand is required.
On bladed systems, include the slot number.
target_PWWN
Specifies the target port WWN of the device port hosted on the encryption engine.
This operand is required.
target_NWWN
Specifies the target node WWN. This operand is required.
-initiator
Specifies one or more initiators. Specifying initiators within a CTC does not mean
that these initiators have access to the Crypto LUN. The initiator PWWNs still
need to be specified when the LUN is added to the CTC to which these initiators
should gain access. The initiators added to the CTC are used only for discovering
the LUNs of the target as exposed to these initiators.
