Keystore Considerations
It is impossible to overstate the importance of preserving your keystore data.
Without access to your keystore you will be unable to decrypt your
encrypted tapes. Carefully read the topics below to understand the methods
available for protecting your keystore data.
The JCEKS Keystore
EKM supports the JCEKS keystore type.
JCEKS (Unix System Services file based) is a file-based keystore supported on all
platforms where EKM runs. Thus it is relatively easy to copy the contents of this
keystore for back up and recovery, and to keep two EKM instances synchronized
for failover. JCEKS provides password-based protection of the contents of the
keystore for security, and provides relatively good performance. File copy methods
such as FTP may be used.
