You don't need network connectivity between the drives/library and the key servers running on z/OS. Communication occurs over the channel. You can verify the connection with command: D IOS,EKM,VERIFY=ALL IOS099I 17.58.55 EKM HOSTS PRIMARY HOSTNAME=172.23.7.2:3801 SECONDARY HOSTNAME=172.23.1.

Dave, I found a couple issues with my library manager. Fist issue (minor) was that I didn't have a pointer to the certs which when I added that led me to a bigger problem. When the library was initially installed (before my time) it was set up on a stand-alone private network. I can get to t

Encryption must work through a data class defined with EEFMT2 Recording Technology and with Key Lables pointing at your key label names. You don't need to segregate tapes. OAM is not involved. I couldn't get a unit name to work; may be possible though. I got it to work in the DC ACS routine by
