Creating an Encrypted Project (BUI)

Shares (filesystems and LUNs) can be encrypted individually or they can be encrypted at the project level because shares inherit project properties. The following example shows how to encrypt all shares within a project by encrypting the project itself.

Before You Begin

To use encryption, you must configure it first; see Data Encryption.

1. Navigate to Shares > Projects.
2. Click the Add icon .
3. Name the project.
4. Set an encryption key length.
5. Choose LOCAL or OKM for the keystore.
6. Select a keyname.
7. Save the project.
