16 Connect a standard CAT5e Ethernet cable from Ethernet Port 2 on the back of the
SKM appliance server to your network (see
Figure 1 on page 4). You will connect to
this port using the IP address assigned in Step 11 above.
17 Complete steps 1-16 on the secondary SKM node before proceeding.
18 When you are finished, do one of the following:
• For pre-SKM 2.4 (240Q) systems, proceed to Installing TLS Certificates on the
SKM Server for Pre-SKM 2.4 (240Q) on page 25.
• For SKM 2.4 (240Q) and later systems, proceed to Installing TLS Certificates on
the SKM Server for SKM 2.4 (240Q) or Later on page 28.
Note: You can see the version of software you are running at the top of the SKM
Admin Commands menu. To view the software version without accessing
SKM Admin Commands, refer to “Viewing the SKM Server Software
Version” in the SKM User’s Guide.
Installing and Configuring the SKM VMware Servers
Note: Quantum provides support for SKM, however Quantum does not support the
virtual environment hardware or software (VMware or KVM).
Follow the instructions in this section if you are deploying a pair of SKM VM servers for
installation in a VMware environment.
Perform all the instructions in this section for each SKM VM server. Use a different
installation CD for each VM.
Caution: It is recommended that the two SKM VM servers be installed in different
physical locations to provide better protection in case of disaster.
Caution: Quantum requires that you do not install any software, file, or operating
system on the SKM VM server unless it is an upgrade or patch supplied by
Quantum.
Equipment and
Software Needed for
VMware
You need the following to set up and configure the SKM VM servers:
• Two (2) Scalar Key Manager VM Installation CD packages. You must use a different
CD package for each SKM server. Each CD package contains:
• SKM VM server software (.ova image)
• SKM server Quantum-provided TLS communication certificate bundle (.tgz file)
