Completing post-conversion tasks

After the model conversion is completed by an IBM® service representative, a few more tasks must be completed.

Procedure

Complete the following tasks on the DS8880:

  1. Download the necessary licensed-machine-code keys from the IBM Data storage feature activation (DSFA) website by using the same frame serial number as the storage system that was converted.
  2. Apply the licensed-machine-code keys obtained from the IBM DSFA website.
  3. If encryption is to be activated:
    1. Assign the Tivoli® servers.
    2. Create the encryption recovery keys to prevent encryption deadlock.
    3. Create the encryption groups.
  4. Create the logical configuration. The configuration cannot be cloned from the converted storage system.
