BRMS Client Enhancements

 Web browser support via
IBM Systems Director
Navigator for i5/OS
– System i Navigator vs.
– IBM Systems Director
Navigator for i5/OS
– Key GUI features (Some
available in earlier
releases)
 Externalize media polices
 DVD/Optical Libraries

v6r1

BRMS GUI – Key features

v6r1
BRMS GUI Overview
 BRMS GUI is a System i5 Navigator Plug-in or Web Interface

 Easy to learn
 Contains most BRMS green screen functions
 GUI created/edited BRMS policies and objects are
compatible with green screen
 Green screen created control groups, devices, volumes,
media classes/pools can be edited via GUI or green screen
 Enhanced help text searching (via Eclipse Help)
– Searches all i5/OS help (not just BRMS)

v6r1
BRMS GUI Overview
 For a smooth transition to the BRMS GUI, read the BRMS

GUI FAQ on the BRMS web page
– www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/service/brms/pluginfaq.html
 Review this documentation for BRMS GUI Plug-in
information (including install/remove) and gathering GUI
Debug information

Encryption caveats
 Encryption not allowed for:

– *IBM, *SAVSYS, *SAVSECDTA, *SAVCFG
– Library names beginning with ‘Q’ – user or system
 Performance impact – see following slide
 Not supported on optical, virtual optical, save files, or TSM
 Error on Recovery Report - be aware
– Discussed in future section
 Most important: User MUST understand Cryptographic
Services key management
– If not, risks losing data
 Encrypted data cannot be restored to a prior release

v6r1
BRMS-based encryption
 Task Performance CPU Utilization
 Source file saves minimal impact approx double

 Usermix Saves approx 30% degradation approx double
 Largefile Saves approx 50% degradation approx 3-5* increase
 Source file restores minimal impact approx 40% increase

 Usermix restores approx 25% degradation approx 40% increase
 Largefile restores approx 4% degradation approx 5-7* increase
Note: Performance tests were run on an i570 and an i570 MMA 4-way system
with EXP24 disk and LTO3 tape

v6r1
Multiple Job Common Synchronization Point

v6r1
 i5/OS support to save while active and synchronize library

and Integrated File System (IFS) objects
– Single checkpoint to ensure library and IFS data saved in
consistent state

Remote Recoveries-Moving a keystore file for REMOTE

RESTORE
 1. Set up a temporary master key on both

systems by loading and setting an unused master
key with identical passphrases.
– System A: ADDMSTPART MSTKEY(3)
PASSPHRASE('mytransferkey') SETMSTKEY
MSTKEY(3)
– System B - same as above! Make sure the key being
used is open to use. CHKMSTKVV MSTKEY(3)
VERSION(*CURRENT) should get Version 1 of master
key 3

RECOVERIES
 2. On the source system, create a duplicate of the

keystore file (for example, using the CRTDUPOBJ
CL command).
– System A: CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(Q1AKEYFILE)

 3. Translate the duplicated keystore file to the

temporary master key.
– System A : TRNCKMKSF

B) RMTUSER(KLD) RMTPWD(yourpw) MODE(*INT)

v6r1

RECOVERIES
 5. Delete the translated keystore file from the source
system. (You still have the original keystore file.)
– System A: DLTOBJ QUSRBRM/BRMTRANSF
 6. On the target system, translate the keystore file to

another master key. Use the master key that is used for
QUSRBRM/Q1AKEYFILE.
– System B TRNCKMKSF
KEYSTORE(QUSRBRM/BRMTRANSF) MSTKEY(1)

v6r1

RECOVERIES
 7. Clear the temporary master key on both
