Encryption

Journal's encryption information:

  • Enabled: The journal contains only encrypted volumes.
  • Disabled: The journal contains only unencrypted volumes.
  • Mixed: The pool to which the journal volume belongs contains two or more of the following:
    • Volume for which encryption is enabled
    • Volume for which encryption is disabled
    • External volume

    Note: Encryption of data is not ensured in an LDEV with the Mixed encryption status. To manage data encryption, use an LDEV in which Encryption is Enabled or Disabled.

  • Hyphen (-): The pool to which the journal volume belongs is an external volume, created in a migration volume (VSP G1000, VSP G1500, and VSP F1500), or blocked.

Inflow Control

Indicates whether the flow of update data to the journal volume is restricted by slowing the response to hosts.

Data Overflow Watch

Number of seconds the system monitors metadata and journal data when the journal volume is full (100%). A hyphen (-) displays if Inflow Control is disabled.

Cache Mode

Whether journal data is stored in cache memory on the remote side (restore journal).

Number of Journal VOLs

Number of journal volumes registered in the journal, with the maximum number allowed in parentheses.

Journal Capacity

Encryption

Encryption information:

  • Enabled: Encryption of the parity group to which the LDEV belongs is enabled, or a V-VOL is associated with a pool in which a pool volume has encryption enabled.
  • Disabled: Encryption of the parity group to which the LDEV belongs is disabled, or a V-VOL is associated with a pool in which a pool volume has encryption disabled.
  • Mixed: The pool to which the LDEV belongs contains two or more of the following:
    • Volume for which encryption is enabled
    • Volume for which encryption is disabled
    • External volume

    Note: Encryption of data is not ensured in an LDEV with the Mixed encryption status. To manage data encryption, use an LDEV in which Encryption is Enabled or Disabled.

  • Hyphen (-): The LDEV is an external volume. For DP-VOL or DP-VOL for Mainframe, the pool to which the LDEV belongs is either an external volume or blocked.
