Secure Key Best Practices and Tape Migration
This section provides information on “Best Practices” when
implementing DLTSage Tape Security and also instructions for migrating
your security keys from one library to another.
For more information on implementing DLTSage Tape Security with
your specific library, refer to the following Quick Start Guides provided
on the documentation CD included in the library accessory kit:

Best Practices
3
When implementing DLTSage Tape Security in your tape library, there
are several “Best Practices” or guidelines to consider:
• The encryption key file should be saved off of the library at least once
a month or whenever a large amount of tapes is removed/added to
the library. It is a good idea to use the date in the file name of the
backup file.
• In the library remote management pages, the secure key and tape
cartridge barcode associations are displayed when you click Find in
the Assign Secure Key to Cartridge section without a specific barcode
entered in the barcode edit box. You should save this file off of the
library so the secure key and barcode associations are available in
case of disaster recovery or when moving the tapes from one library
to another. This also makes it easy to copy and paste the barcode
numbers into the PX720 and Scalar 50 remote management pages
when associating barcodes with secure keys.
• Secure key and encryption password information should NOT be
stored in unsecured areas.
