CLUSTER ENCRYPTION DURING DEPLOYMENT
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250125946 titled 'CLUSTER ENCRYPTION DURING DEPLOYMENT
Original Abstract Submitted
an example method for encrypting clusters during deployment may include retrieving, from a blueprint, resource information required to deploy a cluster including a host computing system and a virtual cluster manager node to manage the host computing system. the resource information may include host information and disk information required to deploy the virtual cluster manager node, and encryption information associated with a key provider. based on the host information and the disk information, a clustered datastore may be created on the host computing system. further, the virtual cluster manager node may be deployed on the clustered datastore. based on the encryption information associated with the key provider, the virtual cluster manager node and associated disks may be encrypted. upon encrypting the virtual cluster manager node, a cluster may be created and the host computing system may be added to the cluster.
