# Enable RDL on the FlashArray

> Procedure to enable Remote Data Lock (RDL) on FlashArray, including security-token testing.

<Danger>
  After you enable RDL, disabling it destroys all data stored in the array.
</Danger>

Perform the following tasks to enable and test RDL:

1. Enable RDL by using KMIP.
2. Test the security-token.

## Enable RDL

The following **purearray enable security-token** command enables RDL by using the KMIP server:

```none expandable lines wrap title="None" theme={null}
pureuser@purefa-ct0:# purearray enable security-token --kmip kmip_srvr
```

You can list the new **security-token** with the following command:

```none expandable lines wrap title="None" theme={null}
pureuser@purefa-ct0:# purearray list --security-token
```

## Test the security-token

The following **purearray test security-token** command tests the **security-token** with RDL enabled:

<Note>
  Allow up to 30 minutes for the purearray test command to accurately reflect the configuration.
</Note>

```none expandable lines wrap title="None" theme={null}
pureuser@purefa-ct0:# purearray test security-token
```

<Check>
  The Status column reports success or failure:

  * OK: A TLS connection was established with the KMIP server, and a basic KMIP Locate request succeeded.
  * Fail: One of the following failures likely occurred:
    * `Cannot connect and authenticate with the server`. For example, the KMIP server URI is not reachable, or the certificate is not in the correct format, is not a complete certificate, or is not a certificate file.
    * `Server is not ready for KMIP operations`. For example, the KMIP server cannot authenticate the certificate, or the KMIP server cannot successfully respond to the Locate request.
</Check>
