24 Dell Encryption Key Manager and Library Managed EncryptionMy PowerVault TL2000/TL4000 posts an LME Failure when I changethe configuration from Library-Managed Encryption toApplication-Managed EncryptionThis is a false failure. The IP address field is cleared when the configurationis changed. This field is required for library-managed encryption and thefailure is generated when it is cleared. This field is not required forapplication-managed encryption.My PowerVault TL2000/TL4000 is configured for library-managedencryption and my RMU shows an error condition with noassociated textMost likely an LME failure has occurred. The failure message is not postedon the RMU. It can be viewed through the RMU by navigating to the warninglog in the unit. To clear the error, it must be acknowledged in the OCP.This issue was fixed in the 7.40 version of the library firmware (version A07on support.dell.com).When I attempt to add a drive manually using adddrive in the CLI,it asks for a 12-digit drive serial number. The drive serial numberis only 10 digitsTwo leading zeroes must be added to the 10 digit drive serial number to makeup the 12 digit serial number entered when using adddrive.Example: Drive serial number is 1234567891. Use 001234567891 for drive serialnumber in adddrive.How is my backup application affected when I configure the libraryfor library-managed encryption?Setting changes are made in the drive after library-managed encryption isenabled on the library. The backup application services must be stopped andrestarted after library-managed encryption is enabled to ensure the backupapplication recognizes the encryption setting in the drive.The tape backup application does not show encryption as enabled iflibrary-managed encryption is used. The tape backup application only showsencryption as enabled if the application is providing the keys to the drive(application-managed encryption).
