Oracle Key Manager (OKM) - Import Key Fails With "Key Already Exists But Is Destroyed Or Not Activated" (Doc ID 2379929.1)

Last updated on SEPTEMBER 09, 2021

Applies to:

Sun StorageTek Crypto Key Management System - Version All Versions to All Versions [Release All Releases]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

A KMA cluster with four node was separated and are now operating independently.

A key assigned to a tape written recently in the cluster before they were separated needed to be imported to the other cluster to retrieve data from the tape.

There was a problem where the customer could not import the key into that cluster because of a relic duplicate Key ID.


So the key is active in one cluster and inactive in the other, but the that tape needs the encryption key is in the wrong cluster.   A straight import across Transfer Partners fails.

Changes

 A four node cluster was separated to become two independent clusters.
