key_server_state

The state of the key server for a specific node.

state

string

Key server connectivity state

connectivity

This property returns the key server connectivity state on all nodes of the cluster. The state is returned for a node only if the connectivity is not in an available state on that node. This is an advanced property; there is an added cost to retrieving its value. The property is not populated for either a collection GET or an instance GET unless it is explicitly requested using the fields query parameter or GET for all advanced properties is enabled.

Name Type Description

cluster_availability

boolean

Set to true when key server connectivity state is available on all nodes of the cluster.

records

array[key_server_state]

An array of key server connectivity states for each node.

key_server_readcreate

Name Type Description

_links

self_link

connectivity

connectivity

This property returns the key server connectivity state on all nodes of the cluster. The state is returned for a node only if the connectivity is not in an available state on that node. This is an advanced property; there is an added cost to retrieving its value. The property is not populated for either a collection GET or an instance GET unless it is explicitly requested using the fields query parameter or GET for all advanced properties is enabled.

server

string

External key server for key management. If no port is provided, a default port of 5696 is used.

timeout

integer

I/O timeout in seconds for communicating with the key server.

username

string

Username credentials for connecting with the key server.

external

Configures external key management

Name Type Description

client_certificate

client_certificate

Client certificate

server_ca_certificates

array[server_ca_certificates]

The UUIDs of the server CA certificates already installed in the cluster or SVM. The array of certificates are common for all the keyservers per SVM.

servers

array[key_server_readcreate]

The set of external key servers.

onboard

Configures onboard key management. After configuring onboard key management, save the encrypted configuration data in a safe location so that you can use it if you need to perform a manual recovery operation.

Name Type Description

enabled

boolean

Is the onboard key manager enabled?

existing_passphrase

string

The cluster-wide passphrase. This is not audited.

key_backup

string

Backup of the onboard key manager's key hierarchy. It is required to save this backup after configuring the onboard key manager to help in the recovery of the cluster in case of catastrophic failures.

passphrase

string

The cluster-wide passphrase. This is not audited.

synchronize

boolean

Synchronizes missing onboard keys on any node in the cluster. If a node is added to a cluster that has onboard key management configured, the synchronize operation needs to be performed in a PATCH operation. In a MetroCluster configuration, if onboard key management is enabled on one site, then the synchronize operation needs to be run as a POST operation on the remote site providing the same passphrase.

status

Optional status information on the current state of the key manager indicating if it is fully setup or requires more action.

Name Type Description

code

integer

Code corresponding to the status message. Returns 0 if the setup is complete. This is an advanced property; there is an added cost to retrieving its value. The property is not populated for either a collection GET or an instance GET unless it is explicitly requested using the fields query parameter or GET for all advanced properties is enabled.

message

string

Current state of the key manager indicating any additional steps to perform to finish the setup. This is an advanced property; there is an added cost to retrieving its value. The property is not populated for either a collection GET or an instance GET unless it is explicitly requested using the fields query parameter or GET for all advanced properties is enabled.

svm
