Redirection zones

It is recommended that you zone the host and target together before configuring them for
encryption. Configuring a host/target pair for encryption normally creates a re-direction zone to
redirect the host-target traffic through the encryption engine. But redirection zones can only be
created if the host and target are already zoned. If the host and target are not already zoned, you
can still configure them for encryption, but afterward you will need to zone the host and target
together, and then click the Commit button to create the re-direction zones as a separate step.
NOTE
If you click the Commit button and the encryption group is busy, you are given the option to force the
commit or abort the changes. Click the Commit button to re-create the redirection zones.

Description
Launches the Encryption Target Hosts dialog box, where you can
configure hosts to access the selected encryption target.
Launches the Encryption Target LUNs dialog box, where you can display
existing LUNs and add new LUNs. The button is enabled only if there are
hosts associated with the targets.
Commits LUN changes, including adding, removing, or modifying disk or
tape LUNs.
If there are multiple paths to the same physical LUNs, then the LUNs are
added to multiple target containers (one target per storage device port).
When adding, modifying, or removing multi-pathed LUNs, make the
same changes in all target containers, and then click Commit to apply all
the changes at once. This keeps the LUN settings consistent on each
path.
There is a limit of 25 LUN changes, including adding, modifying, or
removing LUNs, per Commit operation.
Note: The Commit button can also be used to re-create any redirection
zones that were accidentally modified or removed.
Aborts all transactions that have been configured but are not yet
committed.
Launches the Encryption Target Properties dialog box.
Refreshes the displayed data from the database maintained on the
server. It does not collect new information from the hardware switches.
