If you move secure-enabled drives from one storage array to another, you must import the appropriate security key to the new storage array. Importing the key unlocks the data on the drives.
About this task
This task describes how to unlock data in secure-enabled drives that have been removed from a storage array and reinstalled in another. Once the array discovers the drives, a "Needs Attention" condition appears along with a status of "Security Key Needed" for these re-located drives. You can unlock drive data by importing their security key into the storage array. During this process, you select the security key file and enter the pass phrase for the key.
Note: The pass phrase is not the same as the storage array's Administrator password.
If other secure-enabled drives are installed in the new storage array, they might use a different security key than the one you are importing. During the import process, the old security key is used only to unlock the data for the drives you are installing. When the unlock process is successful, the newly installed drives are re-keyed to the target storage array's security key.
Result
When all drives are locked and then unlocked, each controller in the storage array will reboot. However, if there are already some unlocked drives in the target storage array, then the controllers will not reboot.
