All (Ultra)SPARC T2, T2+, and T3 CPUs should have these capabilities; if you have some other CPU the capabilities are probably not present. Run 'prtdiag | head -20' to see the CPUs on your system/s; run cryptoadm(1M) with the "list" option (Solaris 10+) to see the software and hardware providers available. For further assistance your best bet would be "crypto-discuss" (this has gotten OT for zfs-discuss): http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/crypto-discuss/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
