Importing Encryption
Certificates
The encryption certificate contains a public key that is used to wrap
(encrypt) encryption keys prior to transporting them to another SKM
server. When sharing tape cartridges, you need to import the encryption
certificate of the destination SKM server.
Note: This function is available to administrators and only applies to
SKM servers. Both SKM servers must be connected and
operational in order to import encryption keys.
