All encryption engines in the encryption group share the tape pool definitions. Tapes can be
encrypted by any encryption engine in the group where the container for the tape target LUN is
hosted. The tape media is mounted on the tape target LUN.
Tape pool definitions are not needed to read a tape. The tape contains enough information
(encryption method and key ID) to read the tape. Tape pool definitions are only used when writing
to tape. Tape pool names and numbers must be unique within the encryption group.
Adding tape pools
A tape pool can be identified by either a name or a number, but not both. Tape pool names and
numbers must be unique within the encryption group. When a new encryption group is created, any
existing tape pools in the switch are removed and must be added.
1. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar to display the Encryption Center
dialog box. (Refer to Figure 6 on page 14.)
2. Select a group from the Encryption Center Devices table, then select Group > Tape Pools from
the menu task bar.
NOTE
If groups are not visible in the Encryption Center Devices table, select View > Groups from the
menu task bar.
3. Click Add.
The Add Tape Pool dialog box displays. (Refer to Figure 81 .) The Name tape pool label type is
the default; however, you can change the tape pool label type to Number. (Refer to Figure 82 .)
