6. Select Next. The Import Password screen displays.

exported, then select Next.

8. Assign the imported key to the partition with the encrypted media (see 

).

9. Use your backup software to restore the data.

The optional Endura Decryption Utility (EDU) lets you restore data with a 
minimum of equipment, which may be important in recovering data 
following a crisis or disaster. Use this command-line utility on a host that is 
running Linux and has one or more tape drives connected and online. The 
EDU utility decrypts the data stored on tape and writes it to the same or a 
different tape. You can then restore the data with the backup software used 
to back up the data.

Refer to the BlueScale Encryption User Guide for detailed information about 
using EDU. 

BlueScale Encryption Basic Edition only supports storing a single 
encryption key in the library. You must first delete the key currently stored 
in the library before you can create the new key and assign it to one or 
more partitions (see 

To delete a key:

1. Log in as a superuser, then select Security > Encryption. The 

Encryption User Login screen displays. 

2. Enter the encryption password, then select OK. The Encryption 

Configuration screen displays (see 

Important

EDU can only be used to decrypt data that was encrypted by an encryption-capable 
QIPs in Spectra Logic libraries. It cannot be used to decrypt data that was 
encrypted using drive-based encryption. 

Caution

Make sure that you export a copy of the existing key before you delete it. You will 
need a copy of the exported key and its password to import the key back into the 
library and restore data that was encrypted with the key.
