Step 1 — Installing the EKM License Key
The Scalar i6000 supports four encryption key management systems:
Note:
The library does not support using more than one encryption
key management system on a single library.
Encryption on the Scalar i6000 tape library is enabled by partition only.
The default setting for encryption-capable drives permits external
application-managed encryption support on all encryption-capable tape
drives and media within a partition.
You cannot select individual drives for encryption; you must select an
entire partition to be encrypted. If you encrypt a partition, all
encryption-capable tape drives are enabled for encryption, and all data
written to supported media is encrypted. Non encryption-capable tape
drives will not be enabled for encryption, and non-supported media will
not be encrypted.
