Abstract
Implementations of the disclosure provide for secret keys management in a virtualized data-center. In one implementation, a system is provided. The system comprising a memory to store secret key data and a processing device coupled to the memory. The processing device is to detect activation of a hypervisor on a host system. A request is received from a virtual machine (VM) associated with the hypervisor to access a data storage domain. A secret key providing authenticated access to a data storage device domain is registered to the hypervisor. The secret key includes a universally unique identifier (UUID). To register the secret key, the processing device is to store a data structure indicating an association between the UUID of the secret key and the hypervisor in a volatile memory associated with the processing device. Thereupon, the UUID of the secret key is transmitted to the hypervisor associated with the VM.
