Introduction 0

The PX720 tape library with DLT-S4 tape drives is capable of utilizing DLTSage Tape

security. DLTSage Tape Security is a unique solution designed to prevent

unauthorized access to tape cartridges which is particularly valuable when

protecting tapes that are transported offsite. DLTSage Tape Security is a firmware

feature designed into the DLT-S4 tape drive which uses an electronic key to prevent

or allow reading and writing of data on to a tape cartridge. This key is managed

through the remote management pages of the PX720 tape library (refer to the

Quantum PX720 User’s Guide

, PN 6444601 located on the

PX720 Documentation

for more information on the remote management pages). DLTSage Tape

Security is available at no additional cost as an integrated feature of the DLT-S4

tape drive and PX720 tape library (firmware revision 4.5 or later).

Refer to figure 4 for information on Protection Mode for

Cartridges.

Figure 4 Protection Mode for

Cartridges

The Protection Mode for Cartridges area defines when the

secure key is used for a cartridge in a tape drive with a

secure key enabled. In all modes, the secure key is used to

read data from cartridges that have a pre-existing secure

key. If the secure key on the cartridge does not match the

current secure key on the library, the data on the cartridge

can not be read.

Three write protection modes are available:

•Never Write Secure Key to a Cartridge - The secure

key will never be written to a cartridge placed in a

secured tape drive.

•Only Write Secure Key to Blank Cartridges - The

secure key will only be written to blank, unformatted

cartridges.

PX720 DLTSage™ Tape Security Quick Start Guide

•Write Secure Key to All Cartridges - The secure key

will be written to all cartridges, including blank and

formatted cartridges containing data. This mode may

be used to apply a secure key to cartridges with pre-

existing data.

Importing Secured Tape Cartridges 0

If you need to import tape cartridges into your library which

have been secured with a key from another PX720 library,

you need to import the secure key before the library can

read or write to the tape cartridges.

To import secured tapes:

1Insert the tape cartridges into the PX720 library (refer

to the PX720 User’s Guide (PN 6444601) for

information on inserting tape cartridges.

2On the PX720 library where the tape cartridges were

originally secured with a key, backup the specific secure

key associated with those tape cartridges (see Backup

Secure Key File).

3Upload the secure key from the original library to the

library where the tape cartridges were imported (see

Upload Secure Key File).

The imported tape cartridges are now associated with

the secure key.

NOTE:An error is displayed if the encryption key

provided does not match the encryption key used

to encode the secure keys.
