4. In the Host/IP Address field, type the hostname or IP address of a server that VTS will use as
a backup host for the key database.
5. In the Username field, type the username of a user account that can access the SCP program
on the specified server.
6. Type the password of the user account in the Password field.
7. Select a protocol from the Protocol drop-down list.
8. In the Destination field, type a path and file name to the file that will store the key database.
If the file does not exist, VTS will create it. If you do not specify a fully qualified path, the path
and file are created in the specified user’s home directory.
9. Click SUBMIT.
When you add a backup host, VTS immediately sends a copy of the local key database to the host.
This tests the connection to the host and validates the host parameters that you specified. If a copy
of the key database exists on the target host, it is overwritten.
