Hi All, I've got a bit of a problem with EKM. We're z/OS 1.9, using EKM with Java 1.4.2 (sr10). We're using a JCEKS keystore Library (TS3100 w/ LTO4 drives) is attached to an iSeries 520 with V5R3. iSeries SysAdmin can write tapes, but can't read them. Upon viewing the audit.log I see what appears to be some translation happening with the symmetric keys that were set up for these devices. Given: zoscompatibility=true, and symmetricKeySet = AES01-0F. When the tape is written, it seems to be assinged a key in this format: (some zeros removed for clarity): aes000....1 When the tape is read, the key is in the format (as reported by EKM): 414553000....1 Isn't that ascii? The read fails because it can't fine the above key in the keystore. I have a PMR open with IBM, but figured I'd check here as well. Any ideas? Thanks! BobL
