So I believe things have changed recently with the way Spectrum Protect 8.1.2 now handles client side encryption.
I have read various IBM KB's on the subject but still need to get my head around a few points..
If these are the settings within a client opt file... (Windows)
ENCRYPTKEY SAVE
ENCRYPTIONTYPE AES256
INCLUDE.ENCRYPT *:\...\*
Thanks

- Does the encryption key file change each time a backup session is initiated (scheduled)?
- If I wanted to protect this encryption key file, what is it called (assuming it sits in the 'baclient' directory) and how often do I need to copy it off of the server where it currently resides? Am fully aware that losing an encryption key file due to a downed server can be catastrophic in terms of data recovery.
Thanks
