Isilon Data at rest encryption

Question

I would like to check if data at rest encryption is turned on in my Isilon cluster.

From what I have read Isilon does it automatically with the use of SED (Self encrypting drives).

Is my understanding correct?

And how can I check if the drives on my system are self encrytping?

Also if we setup cloudpools then how can we make sure that data will be encrypted on the cloudpool side as well?

Correct, if you have SED drives, then you're good. The letters SED will usually be in the product number.

`isi_for_array -s "isi_hw_status | grep -i product"`

To check the status of the keys, drives, and so forth, reference the CLI guide. See page 387 here:
