BackBox H4.00 Tape Encryption Option
47 BackBox H4.00 Tape Encryption
Volume
Volume Details
The encryption state of each volume is registered. The ID of the volume specific key
in the Key manager is included for support, to access this key through the Key
Manager user interface.
Volume Edition
The encryption attributes of a volume can be updated.
Example of use case:
• Volumes manually registered in a Restricted Data store accessing the images
of volumes written encrypted in a different environment, not linked by the
BackPak catalog replication.
Encryption related elements
• Encryption algorithm (value “AES-GCM-256” or “None”).
In the use case above, changing “None” to “AES-GCM-256” will enable the
decryption when reading the tape volume.
• Key Manager ID: appears only when the encryption is enabled and is
mandatory in this case.
This ID names the Key Manager, configured in the current BackPak domain,
and that will provide the encryption context for accessing the tape volume.
