Hello Just wanted to get some feedback from anyone with experience in doing tape drive encryption.
We normally run TSM using IBM tape drives in a quantum library. But we have a contractual requirement to deliver encrypted tapes in a standard tar format. Because this is a last minute once off thing we are looking for an easy and cheap way to setup tape drive encryption from the system level. We are using IBM drivers, and I can see there is a ekm config file that points to an EKM server. But it's not clear what protocols/standard are used/required by the EKM server and which ones work etc. Any help would be appreciated -- Grant Street Senior Systems Engineer T: +61 2 9383 4800 (main) T: +61 2 938 34882 (direct) F: +61 2 9383 4801 (fax) Animal Logic Logo *See our latest work at http://www.animallogic.com/work*
