Scalar Key Manager 2.5
Scalar Key Manager 2.5
Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide provides basic installation and configuration
instructions for the Scalar® Key Manager (SKM). SKM can be deployed in
one of two ways:
• a pair of physical appliances (servers) purchased from Quantum, or
• a pair of virtual machines (VMs) installed in a VMware® or KVM
environment.
Definition of terms: This guide uses the following terms to differentiate
between the two types of deployment:
• SKM appliance server — Physical key server purchased from
Quantum.
• SKM VM server — Virtual machine key server purchased from
Quantum and installed in a VMware or KVM environment.
• SKM server — Generic term applying to either an SKM appliance server
or an SKM VM server.
These instructions guide you through installing and configuring both
options. For more information, see the
Scalar Key Manager User’s Guide
located at http://www.quantum.com/ServiceandSupport/
SoftwareandDocumentationDownloads/SKM/Index.aspx. (Scroll down and
click the Documentation tab, and then locate the Product Use Guides
heading.)
Perform all of the steps, in order, before you begin encrypting tapes.
This instruction uses the following conventions:
Note: Notes emphasize important information related to the main topic.
Caution: Cautions indicate potential hazards to equipment and are
included to prevent damage to equipment.
