Hi All,
There seems to be a confusion in the way I am encrypting my NDMP backups using KMS software encrytption
using the article (https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH...).
I had callled up netbackup support who helped me configure this and we verified this by looking at the images written to tape and in the "encryption key tag" coloum we could see the encyption key generated.
i am using LTO5 drives with my Tape libraray.
Now someone as informed me that KMS based software encrpytion is not supported for direct NDMP backups and I need hardware based solution to work?
The only reason I went for the KMS encrpytion was because we did not want to spend on the hardware and since KMS was free and a part of the software as confirmed by the support technician I worked with.
Can someone please clarify this for me if i am using the correct way to encrypt my direct NDMP backups using the KMS procedure mentoined in the article above?
