Enable Rapid Data Locking (RDL) - Futurex Documentation

WARNINGAfter you enable RDL, disabling it obliterates all data stored in the array.

This section shows how to enable and test Rapid Data Locking (RDL).

Enable RDL by using KMIP

Run the following purearray enable security-token command to enable RDL use of the KMIP server:

Shell

pureuser@purefa-ct0:# purearray enable security-token --kmip kmip_srvr

Run the following command to list the new security-token:

Shell

pureuser@purefa-ct0:# purearray list --security-token

You can use the purearray test security-token command to test the security-token with RDL enabled.

Allow up to 30 minutes for the purearray test command to accurately reflect the configuration.

The Status column reports the following success or failure options:

Status	Description
OK	A TLS connection could be established with the KMIP server, and a basic KMIP Locate request is successful.
Fail	Failure can be due to two main categories of error: 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, not a complete certificate, or not a certificate file. Server is not ready for KMIP operations: For example, the certificate cannot be authenticated by the KMIP server, or the KMIP server cannot successfully respond to the Locate request.
