Sanitize freeze lock and anti-freeze lock

Sanitize freeze lock and anti-freeze lock allows you to control whether the sanitize commands for SATA drives are allowable by the operating system and Hewlett Packard Enterprise tools after a system boot or drive hot-plug.

For more information about sanitize, see "Sanitize erase".

This feature has three settings:

• None -- This state is the normal state of the physical disk. No freeze or anti-freeze commands are sent to any of the drives.

• Freeze -- This setting prevents a drive sanitize operation.

• Anti-freeze -- This setting prevents physical disks from being frozen. This setting enables drive sanitize operations.

This setting is applicable only to SATA drives connected to a Smart Array SR controller.
