Correct. The encrypted tapes require some software to be running, like the key manager and key store. Since SAR is stand-alone, it can read or write encrypted tapes. The same is true for the DFSMSdss stand-alone >> I was just trying to work out a 'cold-site' scenario with encrypted tapes. Seems like we'd need to build a 'one-pack system' with a running key ring then do the restores from encrypted tapes to build a 'whole' system.
