cryptocfg --show -hacluster -all | HA_cluster_name

Description

Use these cryptoCfg commands to configure and manage High Availability (HA) clusters.

An HA cluster consists of two encryption engines configured to host the CryptoTargets and to
provide the active/standby failover and failback capabilities in a pair-wise relationship in a single
fabric. The encryption engines that are part of an HA cluster must belong to the same encryption
group and be part of the same fabric.

Failure to ensure that HA cluster members are part of the same encryption group dissolves the HA
cluster and the encryption engines lose their failover capability.

The HA cluster configuration must be performed on the group leader. Configuration changes must
be committed before they take effect. Use the cryptocfg --commit command to commit a new
configuration or a configuration change. Refer to section

“5. Transaction management”

for more

information. Any operation related to an HA cluster performed without a commit operation will not
survive across switch reboots, power cycles, CP failover, or HA reboots.

The command group includes a show option, --show -hacluster. When invoked on a member node,
this command displays the committed HA cluster configuration. When invoked on the group leader,
both defined and committed configuration data is displayed including the following:

Encryption group name: A user-defined name

Number of HA clusters in the existing encryption group: numeric value

For each HA cluster:

-

HA cluster name: user-defined label

-

Number of encryption engine entries: numeric value

-

HA cluster Status: Committed or Defined

For each encryption engine member in the HA cluster:

-

EE WWN: the encryption group world wide name

-

EE slot number: the encryption group slot number

-

EE status: online or offline

Operands

The cryptoCfg HA cluster configuration function has the following operands:

--

help -hacluster

Displays the synopsis for the HA cluster configuration function. This
command is valid on all nodes.

--

create -hacluster

Defines an HA cluster with a specified name and optionally associates up to
two encryption engines with the HA cluster. This command is valid only on the
group leader. The EEs must be members of the same encryption group as the
group leader on which this command is issued. This command fails if the
member nodes’ IP addresses for the GbE ports (I/O sync ports) are not

configured. The encryption engines must belong to different switches or
chassis. This rule is enforced by the CLI to ensure redundancy.

The following operands are supported:
