Enabling and disabling encryption for a cluster

You can enable and disable cluster-wide encryption at rest. This feature is not enabled by default.

Before you begin

You must have cluster administrator privileges to change encryption settings.
Ensure that the cluster is in a healthy state before changing encryption settings.

Tip: Configure NTP on the cluster to point to a local NTP server. You should use the IP address and not the DNS host name. The default NTP server at cluster creation time is set to us.pool.ntp.org; however, a connection to this site cannot always be made depending on the physical location of the SolidFire cluster.

Procedure

Click Cluster > Settings.
Click Enable Encryption at Rest.
Optional: To disable encryption at rest, click Disable Encryption at Rest.
