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
CD
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).

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.
