Planning Your Q-EKM Environment

Backing Up Keystore and Configuration Data

Quantum Encryption Key Manager User’s Guide 15

• Each library can only be configured to use one Q-EKM server/pair at

a time.

• The ports configured on the library must be set to the same values as

the ports on the Q-EKM server (see Changing the Communication

Port Settings on page 37 and your library user’s guide for details).

Backing Up Keystore and Configuration Data

Due to the critical nature of the keys in the keystore, you should always

back up the keystore so that you can recover it, if needed, and be able to

read the tapes that were encrypted using certificates imported into the

keystore.

Your configuration files are also important to back up so that if your

server dies you can reconstruct it exactly as it was configured before.

Use your system backup capabilities to back up the entire

QEKM directory

regularly. The

QEKM directory is located here:

For disaster recovery, see Disaster Recovery Planning on page 16.

Windows c:\Program Files\Quantum\QEKM

Linux /opt/Quantum/QEKM

Caution: Do not use Q-EKM to encrypt the backups! Back up to

clear tape! If you encrypt your backup, and you later lose

your keystore, you will not be able to decrypt the tapes to

recover your data.
