Sharing Encrypted Tapes – Import/Export Operations

Importing a Public Certificate

Quantum Encryption Key Manager User’s Guide 46

7 Possible Step: You may be asked to enter the library serial number

associated with the public certificate. If you are not asked for the

library serial number, then skip this step.

You will be asked for the library serial number if the default name of

the key file was changed and Q-EKM cannot identify the library

serial number from the file name (the default name is

QEKMIECert<library SN>.cer). Q-EKM looks for the library serial

number during the import process (see Understanding How Q-EKM

Uses Aliases on page 41). If the library serial number no longer

appears in the file name, then the administrator who sent you the file

must provide the library serial number and you must enter it

manually.

The library serial number can be found in the

library_serialnum file

located in the

QEKM directory of the Q-EKM server that generated the

public certificate:

8 The public certificate is added to your keystore and the keystore is

refreshed and reloaded.

9 When prompted, press

<Enter> to return to the Key Import/Export

menu.

10 Import the public certificate into the other server in the Q-EKM

server pair, or copy the keystore over to the other server.

Windows

c:\Program Files\Quantum\QEKM

Linux

/opt/Quantum/QEKM

Caution: IMPORTANT: Importing certificates updates the

keystore file. To make sure the primary and secondary

keystores match, when finished importing, either

import the public certificate into the other server in

the Q-EKM server pair, or manually copy the keystore

to the other server in the Q-EKM server pair. You

must do this manually because the synchronization

process does not copy the keystore.
