Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs)
The 12th Series and 13th Series cards
support SEDs for protection of data against loss or theft by the use of encryption
technology on the drives. There is one security key per controller. You can manage the
security key using Local Key Management (LKM) or OpenManage Secure Enterprise Key
Manager also referred as Secure Enterprise Key Manager (SEKM). The security key is used
by the controller to lock and unlock access to encryption-capable physical disks. To use
this feature, you must:
- Have SEDs in your system.
- Create a security key.
SEDs that are secured by a non-PERC entity cannot be used by PERC. Ensure that the SED is re-provisioned in an applicable manner by the non-PERC entity before connecting to PERC. For more information, see Security key and RAID management.
NOTE:You cannot enable security on
non-optimal virtual disks.
NOTE:PERC13 and PERC12 cards support
Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Enterprise Security Subsystem Classes (SSC) SAS or
SATA SEDs, and TCG Opal SSC NVMe drives.
