6.

Enter the location of the token backup file. (The Browse button will be active after the token

NOTE:

Each key server token can hold up to a maximum of 100 keys. If the token backup

file and the token receiving the restore contain over 100 unique keys, the restore process will
not be initiated. You will receive warnings when the key server token is over 90% full. You
should purchase new tokens and transition to using a new token when these warnings appear.
Keys can never be deleted from the key server token.

Click Restore.

8.

After the backup process is complete, return the first key server token to the rear USB port of
the library.

9.

Store the second key server token in a secure location.

CAUTION:

The token must be in the USB port of the library to read or write encrypted data. If

the token is dislodged or removed, your backups could fail. If the token is lost, you will not be able
to restore the data from your encrypted tapes unless you have a token with the keys used to write
the tapes.

Optional: Change the security user password

The library is shipped with a default password for the security user. For increased security, change
the password for the security user.

From the Configuration > User Accounts screen, select the security user, enter the new password
twice, and then click Submit. The password must contain eight to 16 characters, which can include
upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.
