Dell 36XX, 34XX, 38XX, 32XX manual Create Storage Array Security Key, UpdateExistingVirtualDisks

Parameter	Description
	(#) for the identifier. Identifiers can have a
	maximum of 30 characters.
physicalDisks	The physical disks that you want to use to create
	the SSD cache. For high-capacity expansion
	enclosures, specify the enclosure ID value, the
	drawer ID value, and the slot ID value for each
	physical disk that you want to assign to the SSD
	cache. For low-capacity expansion enclosures,
	specify the enclosure ID value and the slot ID value
	for each physical disk that you assign to the SSD
	cache. Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99. Drawer ID
	values are 0 to 4. Slot ID values are 0 to 31.
	Enclose the enclosure ID values, the drawer ID
	values, and the slot ID values in parentheses.
updateExistingVirtualDisks	This optional parameter specifies whether the SSD
	cache should be enabled for all existing virtual
	disks in the storage array. To enable the SSD cache
	for all existing virtual disks, set this parameter to
	TRUE. If you want to enable the SSD cache for
	individual virtual disks later, set this parameter to
	FALSE. The default value is TRUE.

Notes

A storage array can have only one SSD cache.

Only virtual disks created using hard disk physical disks can use the SSD cache. You cannot enable SSD cache on snapshot (legacy) virtual disks or snapshot images.

SSDs do not currently support self encrypting disk (SED). Therefore, virtual disks that have SED enabled cannot use the SSD cache.

If all of the SSDs in the SSD cache are data assurance (DA)-capable and the DA premium feature is enabled, DA is automatically enabled for the SSD cache and cannot be disabled. In addition, you cannot add non-DA capable SSDs to a DA-enabled SSD cache.

Create Storage Array Security Key

Description

This command creates a new security key for a storage array that has Self-Encrypting Disk (SED) physical disks. This command also sets the security definitions and sets the state to Security Enabled.

NOTE: Before you create a storage array security key, you must set the password for the storage array. Use the setStorageArray command to set the password for the storage array.
