Using the MegaRAID Advanced Software : LSI SafeStore Encryption Services : Enabling Drive Security Using EKM

Enabling Drive Security Using EKM
EKM is used for key management when a large number of systems are deployed. You can automate and manage the life cycle of keys and unlock configurations using EKM.
Another important feature of EKM is that you can use EKM without human intervention to perform operations like drive migration and controller replacement.
MegaRAID accomplishes the task of obtaining keys by interacting with the EKM agent. The EKM agent talks to the EKM server (EKMS) through a network and gets the security key for the controller.
Keys are retrieved or created to perform the following tasks.
You can perform the following configurations to enable the drive security to create secure virtual drives using the EKM mode with the support of EKM servers.
