(encrypt) the keys by selecting it from the Certificate Name Used
For Export drop-down list. Choose the certificate that belongs to
the server to which the keys will be imported.
Note: The owner of that server should have sent you the
certificate and you should have imported it (see
Sharing
Encrypted Tape Cartridges on page 203 and Importing
Encryption Certificates on page 205). The drop-down list
contains all of the encryption certificates that you have
ever imported onto your SKM server (indicated by the word
“imported” in the list), as well as the certificate belonging
to your SKM server pair (indicated by the word “native” in
the list).

options:
• Export Used — Exports all the keys that have ever been used to
encrypt tape cartridges on the library performing this export.
Also exports all keys that were imported onto the key server, via
a “key import” operation, from any library.
