Encryption, and Cleartext.

If you change a LUN policy from Native Encryption or DF-Compatible Encryption to Clear

Text, you disable encryption.

The LUNs of the target that are not enabled for encryption must still be added to the

CryptoTarget container with the Clear Text encryption mode option.

re-keying interval simply triggers the generation of a new key to be used on future tape

tape contents using a host application that decrypts the tape contents using the old key, then

rewrite the tape, which re-encrypts the data with the new key.
