I need to enable hardware encryption yet I don't want Backup Exec to manage any keys. Quantums has a QEKM, Quantum Encryption Key Manager Server, that handles all the key. I noticed that in the past on other backup software, that if the QEKM server i...

I just want to confirm that if I have a full backup done on 12/1 and I hold it out so it doesn't get overwritten, then once it expires on 2/1 that I can still restore from it like a month later. I beleive I have to re-scan it, right? or re-catalog it...
