Key Management Service
The Key Management Service (KMS) feature runs on NetBackup 6.5.2 and is a master server based symmetric key management service that manages symmetric cryptography keys for tape drives that conform to the T10 standard (LTO4). KMS has been designed to uses volume pool based tape encryption. KMS is used with tape hardware that has built-in hardware encryption capability. An example tape drive with built-in encryption is the IBM ULTRIUM TD4 cartridge drive. KMS runs on Windows and UNIX. KMS generates keys from your passcodes or auto-generates keys. KMS operations are done through the KMS Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI options are available for use with both nbms and bmkmsutil. KMS has a minimal impact on existing NetBackup operation system management and yet provides a foundation for future Key Management Service enhancements. The initial release of KMS has a limited feature set in this 6.5.2 unlicensed version with a limited number of key groups and key records for each key group.
