7. Click Next. Follow the remaining instructions in the wizard. For more detailed information,
see the appropriate SKM or ESKM installation and replacement guide.
Changing library partitions after initial SKM or ESKM setup
When you add or remove partitions in a library that is enrolled with the SKM or ESKM, you must
also add or remove the key generation policy for that partition using the SKM or ESKM Management
Console software. (For instructions, see the SKM or ESKM user guide.) Until this policy is updated,
the key management status for the tape drives in the affected partition will appear as critical (red)
on the Health Summary screen. After you update this policy, it is applied the next time media is
loaded into the tape drive, which will clear the critical status. Only the security user can change
this policy (see (page 22) and Changing library passwords (page 34)).
Verifying connectivity from the library to SKM or ESKM
To verify connectivity from the library to the SKM or ESKM:
1. You must log into Command View TL as a security user to change the key manager. See
“Starting Command View TL” (page 21).
2. In the Launcher window, click the Devices tab. A list of the current libraries appears.
3. Double-click the library for which you want to change the key manager.
4. Click the Configuration tab.
5. In the left panel, select Key Management.
NOTE: The Key Management command will only appear if you have Advanced Secure
Manager (see Using license keys (page 144)) and LTO4 and later tape drives installed in your
library. (To verify if LTO4 and later tape drives are installed, navigate to the Library window,
click the Status tab, then in the left panel, click Advanced LTO Drives).
6. Select Actions→Verify Key Manager Connectivity. The welcome screen appears.
7. Read the information on the screen, and click Next.
8. Verify that the configuration is correct, then click Next.
