Configuring the Scalar
i3/i6 Tape Library
Perform these steps, in order, on the Scalar i3 or i6 library only.
Refer to the i3 or i6 Documentation Center for detailed instructions on how to complete
each of the following steps.
• Scalar i3 Documentation Center: http://www.quantum.com/scalari3docs
• Scalar i6 Documentation Center: http://www.quantum.com/scalari6docs
1 Install the Encryption Key Management (EKM) license on your library.
2 For the Scalar i3, Prepare partitions for library-managed encryption by doing the
following:
a Install the following tape drives in the library, if not already installed. Unload all
tape cartridges from these tape drives.
For the Scalar i3:
• IBM HH SAS LTO6
• IBM HH SAS LTO7
• IBM HH FC LTO6
• IBM HH FC LTO7
For the Scalar i6:
• IBM FH FC LTO6
• IBM FH FC LTO7
b On the tape drives, install the latest version of firmware that is qualified for the
library firmware installed on your library. Refer to the library release notes for
the correct version of tape drive firmware.
3 TLS certificates must be installed on the library as well as on the SKM server. Refer to
the following links to the Scalar i3/i6 Documentation Centers for instructions on
how to install certificates.

4 Configure the SKM server IP addresses and generate data encryption keys.
a On the library’s remote Web client, navigate to the EKM server configuration
screen.
b Enter the SKM primary and secondary server IP addresses or hostnames in the
fields provided.
c Click OK.
