The ENCRYPT&APPEND function takes either labeled or unlabled tapes and copies data from the tapes to the end of a single stacked tape, encrypting the original data in the process.
ENCRYPT&APPEND also supports heterogeneous media translation. This occurs when a tape is stacked to a tape media that is different from the media of the original tape volume.
The encryption method used is specified using the SETTINGS function. The passphrase supplied by the user must be supplied for a decrypt operation.
Examples
The following are examples of commands using the ENCRYPT&APPEND function:
-
U TSU ENCRYPT&APPEND UNITNO=93 (TP) TO “STACKD”
-
