Moving targets

The Move Targets dialog box is used to redistribute which engine encrypts which targets. It is also
useful for transferring all targets to another engine before replacing or removing engine hardware.
Moving targets to another engine may be done while traffic is flowing between the host and target.
Traffic is interrupted for a short time but resumes before the host applications are affected.

1. Select Configure > Encryption.

The Encryption Center dialog box displays.

2. Select one or more encryption engines from the Encryption Center Devices table, then select

Engine > Targets from the menu task bar. The encryption engine must be in the same group
and same fabric.

The Encryption Targets dialog box displays.

3. Select one or more targets in the Encryption Targets dialog and click Move.

The Move Targets dialog box is displayed.

4. Select an encryption engine, then click OK to close the dialog and start the move operation.

Configuring encrypted tape storage in a multi-path
environment

This example assumes one host is accessing one storage device using two paths:

The first path is from Host Port A to Target Port A, using Encryption Engine A for encryption.

The second path is from Host Port B to Target Port B, using Encryption Engine B for encryption.

Encryption Engines A and B are in switches that are already part of Encryption Group X.

The following procedure is used to configure this scenario using BNAthe Management application.

1. Configure Host Port A and Target Port A in the same zone by selecting Configure > Zoning from

the BNA Management application main menu.

2. Configure Host Port B and Target Port B in the same zone by selecting Configure > Zoning from

the BNA Management application main menu.

3. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar to display the Encryption Center

dialog box (Refer to

Figure 376

on page 976).

4. Click View Groups to display the encryption groups if groups are not already displayed.

5. Select Encryption Group X, then click the Targets icon.

6. From the Encryption Targets dialog box, click Add to open the Configure Storage Encryption

wizard. Use the wizard to create a target container for Encryption Engine A with Target Port A
and Host Port A.

7. Repeat Step 6 to create a target container for Encryption Engine B with Target Port B and

Host Port B.

Up to this point, BNAthe Management application has been automatically committing changes
as they are made. The targets and hosts are now fully configured; only the LUN configuration
remains.
