a. Select Export.
b. Decide whether to save the key to a USB device, or to mail it to a previously
defined email recipient.
Spectra Logic recommends saving the key to a USB device as it allows he library
to verify that the save completed successfully by using the Check Key Files
option. If you plan to save the key to a USB device, plug the USB device into the
LCM before proceeding (see Figure 1).
Note: Do not use the default [email protected] email
recipient. Spectra Logic does not save emailed configuration files.
c. Enter a password, which is used to encrypt the key itself, select Next.
d. Make a record of the password, which you will need to import the key. Without
it, you cannot import the key, and the data which was encrypted using the key
will be inaccessible.
e. Confirm that the encrypted key copied correctly by using one of these methods:
ƒ USB device—Select the Check Key Files button.
If the confirmation indicates the key did not copy correctly, delete all data from
the USB device so that no trace of the failed key attachment remains, then re-
export the key to a different USB device, beginning with Step 2.
ƒ Emailed—Confirm the receipt of the attachment by contacting the user to whom
you sent the encrypted key file and verifying receipt and validity of the key.
