Re: ts1120 e05 encryption z/VM transparent guest support for z/VSE
Thanks for the reply. I have several follow-up questions, might be more straightforward to contact you offline.
Re: ts1120 e05 encryption z/VM transparent guest support for z/VSE
The EKM will reside on an Intel server. I am aware of the out of band requirement. Thanks.
Re: ts1120 e05 encryption z/VM transparent guest support for z/VSE
The other issue is that you will need to import their key store into your out-of-band EKM (Encryption Key Manger) ... you have one of those don't you? You can't use a in-band EKM running on z/OS.

In customer environment, the encryption will be done from z/VSE. In the disaster recovery environment, z/VSE 4.1.x will be recovered as a guest under z/VM 5.3.0. IBM Systems Storage tape encryption solutions redbook states that PTF for APAR VM64062 is required for DFSMS/VM support for z/VSE guests. Please confirm if this apar is required for DR environment. The production environment is z/VSE native, no z/VM. The TS1120 does not provide full librarian functionality therefore the Removable Media Services (RMS) component of DFSMS/VM does not support this device. If you were using a tape librarian product, then APAR VM64062 would indeed be required in order for z/VSE guests to exploit drives that are encrypt capable.
