Encryption Group Properties dialog box - General tab

The General tab contains the following information:

Encryption Group Name: The name of the encryption group

Group Status: The status of the encryption group. Options are:

-

OK-Converged: The group leader can communicate with all members

-

Degraded: The group leader cannot contact one or more of the configured group
members. When the group is in a degraded state, many operations are not permitted,
including configuring targets, hosts, LUNs, HA clusters, and tape pools.

Deployment Mode: The group’s deployment mode, which is transparent mode

Failback Mode: Identifies the group’s failback mode. Options are: Automatic and Manual.
Failback mode can be changed by clicking on the field and selecting the desired mode.

The HA Failback option determines the behavior when a failed encryption engine is restarted.
When one encryption engine in an HA cluster fails, the second encryption engine in the HA
cluster takes over the encryption and decryption of traffic to all encryption targets in the first
encryption engine.
