Reclaiming the WWN base of a failed Brocade Encryption Switch

25. Check the EG state using the following command to ensure that the entire EG is in a converged
and In Sync state.
Admin:switch> cryptocfg –-show –groupcfg
Reclaiming the WWN base of a failed Brocade Encryption Switch
When a Brocade Encryption Switch fails, to reclaim the WWN base, follow these steps:
1. Locate the Brocade Encryption Switch that has failed and deregister from the encryption
group.
Admin:switch> cryptocfg –-dereg –membernode
2. Reclaim the WWN base of the failed Brocade Encryption Switch.
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --reclaimWWN –membernode
3. Synchronize the crypto configurations across all member nodes.
Admin:switch> cryptocfg –-commit
NOTE
When attempting to reclaim a failed Brocade Encryption Switch, do not execute cryptocfg
–-
transabort. Doing so will cause subsequent reclaim attempts to fail.
Removing stale rekey information for a LUN
To clean up stale rekey information for a LUN, complete one of the following procedures:
Procedure 1:
1. Modify the LUN policy from “encrypt” to “cleartext” and commit. The LUN will become disabled.
2. Enable the LUN using the following command:
Admin:switch> cryptocfg --enable –LUN
2. Modify the LUN policy from “cleartext” to “encrypt” with the enable_encexistingdata command
to enable the first-time encryption, then commit. This will clear the stale rekey metadata on the
LUN and the LUN can be used again for encryption.
Procedure 2:
1. Remove the LUN from the CryptoTarget Container and commit.
2. Add the LUN back to the CryptoTarget Container with LUN State=”clear-text”, policy=”encrypt”
and “enable_encexistingdata” set for enabling the first-time encryption, then commit. This will
clear the stale rekey metadata on the LUN and the LUN can be used again for encryption.
