RESTORING THE LIBRARY CONFIGURATION
Overview If you have valid backups of the library’s configuration and the
MLM database saved on a USB device or sent as an email attachment, you
can use them to restore the library in the event of a disaster. You can also
use these backups to restore the library if problems require you to replace
the LCM or the memory card in the LCM. See Backing Up the Library
Configuration on page 143 for information about backing up the library
configuration.
Notes: All backup files of the library configuration include any
BlueScale encryption keys that were stored in the library at
the time the file was created.
The backup of the MLM database also contains the DLM
database.
User Privilege Requirements Only a user with superuser or administrator
privileges can restore the library configuration and the MLM and DLM
databases. To restore BlueScale encryption keys, the user must also be
logged in as an encryption user. See Understanding User Groups and
Security on page 96 and the Spectra Tape Libraries Encryption User Guide for
information.
