  • volume encryption secure-purge start

    Start secure deletion of trash in existing volume

    Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the advanced privilege level.

    Description

    The volume encryption secure-purge start command performs secure purge of encrypted volume.

    Parameters

    -vserver <vserver name> - Vserver

    This parameter specifies the Vserver on which the volume is located.

    -volume <volume name> - Volume

    This parameter specifies the name of the volume being encrypted.

    { [-delete-all-snapshots {true|false}] - Delete all Snapshot Copies?

    This parameter specifies if it is required to delete all the snapshots in the volume.

    [-re-encryption-method {volume-move|in-place-rekey}] - Method to Use for Re-keying the Volume

    Specifies the re-encryption method of the secure-purge operation. Possible values are:

    • volume-move

    • in-place-rekey

    The volume-move method is faster compared to in-place-rekey method. The volume-move method requires additional space in the same aggregate. The volume-move method will cause unforced MetroCluster switchovers to be blocked while it is running. The volume-move operation involves cut-over phase in which client I/O operations are temporary blocked for short duration - less than 45 seconds. There is no cut-over phase for in-place-rekey method.

    | [-prepare <true>] - Method to Use for Preparing Secure Purge }

    This parameter specifies if it is required to prepare secure purge of encrypted volume.
