Issue/Introduction

Can existing dataset be encrypted wiith IBM Pervasive Encryption?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component :

Resolution

A dataset is marked for encryption when it is created and not after it is created. So existing datasets cannot be encrypted.

A new dataset would need to be created and the data copied into the new dataset.

This is not a Top Secret restriction but an IBM Pervasive Encryption one. The same restriction is applicable to ACF2 and RACF.
