If you specifically indicate that your AI files should not be encrypted when you first enable encryption on your database, you can enable them for encryption at a later point in time in the following ways:

  • You can re-issue PROUTIL ENABLEENCRYPTION and add -aiencryption enable to the command line, as shown:
    proutil dbname -C enableencryption -aiencryption enable
  • You can indicate that AI files are to be encrypted when you begin AI operations, as shown:
    rfutil dbname -C aimage begin -aiencryption enable

    By default, if your database is enabled for encryption, enabling after-imaging attempts to enable encryption for your AI files.

  • You can indicate that AI files are to be encrypted when you enable after-imaging with an online backup, as shown:
    probkup dbnamebackupname -enableai -aiencryption enable

    By default, if your database is enabled for encryption, enabling after-imaging enables encryption for your AI files.

Note: You can use the same commands, with -aiencryption disable to turn off the encryption of your AI files.
