Hi Zoltan,
        We used TSM encryption (Application base on AIX TSM servers) and here 
are the steps we had to implement:

1. On  TSM server :
     Update DEVCLASS 3592CLASS2 drivee=on

2. On  AIX :
chdev  -l 'rmt6' -a wrt_encryption='on'
chdev  -l 'rmt13' -a wrt_encryption='on'
chdev  -l 'rmt14' -a wrt_encryption='on'

('on' replaces the value 'custom')

3. Change at the  hardware level  :
Enable "Application" at the drive level :

CE Drv Options
        Drive encryption
                Method config
                        Application

I know this sounds strange, but we need to implement encryption on our
TS1130 tapes.

Never having done this, I need some help/suggestions/war-stories/etc on how to 
basically turn encryption on.  Is there a quick-and-dirty book on the subject?

I understand the first thing would be to change the devclass for the tape 
drives to "encryption=yes" for ALL of my servers (currently, 2 of 7 are library 
managers).

Then I saw something about EKM to manage the keys.  Is this also implemented on 
all TSM servers?
