Merging Encryption Key Manager (EKM) 2.X into EKM 3.0 after

Installing EKM 3.0

This chapter describes the post-installation EKM 2.X to EKM 3.0 merge procedure for Windows and Linux. This

procedure uses the EKM 2.X to EKM 3.0 merge tool.

Use this procedure if EKM 3.0 is already installed and configured and you want to merge EKM 2.X into EKM 3.0.

NOTE: If you are using a primary/secondary EKM 3.0 server configuration, then you must perform the merge

procedure only on the primary EKM 3.0 server. After the merge procedure is complete on the primary EKM 3.0

server, perform the backup procedure, and then restore the backup file on the secondary EKM 3.0 server. Refer to

Performing Backups and Restoring from a Backup.

NOTE: If EKM 3.0 is not yet installed, Dell recommends migrating EKM 2.X into EKM 3.0 during the EKM 3.0

installation. Refer to Performing the EKM 3.0 Installation Procedure.

The examples in this document use standard Windows paths (for example, C:\<

>). Substitute the appropriate

root drive letter or Linux path for your system.
