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 [-list]

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.
