The Tools - EKM Audit Log screen displays the status of tape cartridges and partitions in the library. The EKM audit log captures historical encryption key management configuration data with respect to any logical library partition, listing events for encryption method changes for every logical library partition. Upon partition creation, modification, and deletion, the encryption method is also captured to have complete records as to when a partition was created, when the encryption method was modified, and when a partition and its respective encryption method was deleted.
The historical data for the encryption on the library partitions is shown:
Information about media encryption status is entered into the EKM Audit Log each time an EKM Audit Log is requested, together with all historical tape cartridge encryption status data from the drive utilization and/or media usage log records for all tape cartridges that have been dismounted during the same time period, and for which an encryption status has been established during drive mount and operations, regardless of the tape cartridges still residing in the physical library or not. Such tape cartridge records show:
Timestamp — date and time of any dismount operations which captured the encryption status
Barcode — barcode label information
Medium Serial Number — tape cartridge serial number
Drive Serial Number — serial number of drive that determined the tape cartridge encryption status
Partition Name — name of the partition
Encrypted — encryption status established upon the dismount operation
