exchanged if these links are not configured and active.

“Encryption node initialization and certificate generation”

on page 990 lists the security

parameters and certificates that are generated when an encryption node is initialized.

“Supported encryption key manager appliances”

on page 994 lists the supported key manager

appliances, and lists topics that provide additional detail.

Encryption user privileges

In the Management application, resource groups are assigned privileges, roles, and fabrics.
Privileges are not directly assigned to users; users get privileges because they belong to a role in a
resource group. A user can only belong to one resource group at a time.

The Management application provides three pre-configured roles:

Storage encryption configuration

Storage encryption key operations

Storage encryption security

Table 110

lists the associated roles and their read/write access to specific operations. The

functions are enabled from the Encryption Center dialog box:
