Without access to your keystore you will be unable to decrypt your encrypted tapes. Carefully read the topics below to understand the methods available for protecting your keystore data. The JCEKS Keystore EKM supports the JCEKS keystore type. JCEKS (Unix System Services file based) is a file-based keystore supported on all platforms where EKM runs. Thus it is relatively easy to copy the contents of this keystore for back up and recovery, and to keep two EKM instances synchronized for failover. JCEKS provides password-based protection of the contents of the keystore for security, and provides relatively good performance. File copy methods such as FTP may be used. Chapter 2.
