Importing Encryption Certificates

The encryption certificate contains a public key that is used to wrap

(encrypt) encryption keys prior to transporting them to another SKM

server. When sharing tape cartridges, or when performing a backup in the

event of SKM server failure, you need to import the encryption key

certificate of the destination SKM server.

This function is available to users with

administrator-level privileges and only applies to

SKM servers. Both SKM servers must be connected

and operational in order to import encryption key

certificates.

Before starting this process, read and follow the sequence of steps outlined

in Sharing Encryption Tape Cartridges—page 248.

1 Receive the

encryption key certificate file from the destination SKM

server administrator and save it to a known location on your

computer.
