Parameter
physicalDiskMediaType
Security Type
The securityType parameter is valid for physical disks that are capable of self encrypting disk (SED).
With SED, the RAID controller module firmware can create a key and activate the physical disk security
feature. The physical disk security feature encrypts data as the data is written to the physical disk and
decrypts the data as the data is read from the physical disk. Without the key created by the RAID
controller module, the data written to the physical disk is inaccessible.
Before you can set the securityType parameter to capable or enabled, you must create a storage array
security key. Use the create storageArray securityKey command to create a storage array
security key. These commands are related to the security key:
•
create storageArray securityKey
•
enable diskGroup [diskGroupName] security
•
export storageArray securityKey
•
import storageArray securityKey
•
set storageArray securityKey
•
start secureErase (physicalDisk | physicalDisks)

This command creates a new host. If you do not specify a host group in which to create the new host,
the new host is created in the default group.
