Backing up and restoring smart cards
After you have initialized a smart card and the card is ready for
use, it is highly recommended that you create a smart card
recovery file. The recovery file can be used to transfer the smart
card data from one smart card to another smart card. This file can
also be used to back up the original smart card or to restore the
data when a smart card is lost or stolen.
Ä
CAUTION: To avoid having a recovery file that does not match a smart
card with updated information, immediately create a new recovery file
and store it in a safe place. If you keep a backup smart card, you must
also update the information on the backup smart card by restoring the
new recovery file onto the backup smart card.
