Optimization Service is not running

[chuckoutcalt]

I'm trying out the SteelStore 730 AMI from the AWS marketplace.  Following the setup rules, but when I get to connecting the storage, its failing because the optimization service cannot be started...needs encryption key.

How do I resolve?

Thanks!

Hi,

The problem does appear unusual, can you please try to issue the following commands to address it for now (from the SSH connection to the SteelStore):

enable

configure terminal

datastore encryption generate-key

This should generate the encryption key, and address the problem you're experiencing.

Regards,

Christopher
