3.Under Settings, locate Encrypted Physical Drive Count. Click Drive Key Rekey.

4.A prompt appears, indicating new Drive Encryption Keys will be created for all physical drives. Click OK to continue.

Rescanning keys

In Remote Mode, this procedure signals the controller to retrieve all encryption keys from the HP ESKM. This procedure resolves potentially locked volumes that could have been locked as a result of failure to initially retrieve the associated keys.

To rescan keys:

1.Open Encryption Manager ("Opening Encryption Manager" on page 33).

2.Log in to Encryption Manager ("Logging into Encryption Manager" on page 33).

3.Under Utilities, click Rescan Encryption Keys.

4.A new window appears, indicating HP iLO will retrieve keys from the HP ESKM. Click OK to continue.

Creating a plaintext volume

IMPORTANT: The controller only allows the creation of new plaintext volumes if it has been configured to do so by the Crypto Officer. Refer to the Encryption Manager screen to determine if plaintext volume creation is enabled on the controller.

To create a plaintext volume:

1.Start HP SSA. For more information, see the HP Smart Storage Administrator User Guide.
