Chapter 7: Encryption Key Management
Performing Scalar Key Manager Functions Available on the Library
Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide 201
Caution: Avoid manually generating keys on more than five libraries
simultaneously as the key generation process is resource-
intensive on the server. Generating keys manually on more
than five libraries at once could result in a failure to
complete the key generation operation, or interfere with
key retrieval operations.
If a failure does occur during key generation, wait 10
minutes, then try to start it again. The key generation
process will resume from where the error was encountered.
To manually generate data encryption keys:
1 Make sure that both SKM servers are running and operational.
2 From the library’s Web client, access the encryption partition
configuration screen (Setup > Encryption > Partition
Configuration)
. See Figure 37 on page 201.

Encryption Partition
Configuration Screen
3 Select an SKM partition configured for Library Managed Encryption,
and temporarily disable Library Managed Encryption by clearing the
check box under LME. (see
Figure 38 on page 202). Remember
which partition it is, because you will be changing it back in a few
minutes.
4 Click Apply.
