options:
• Export Used — Exports all the keys that have ever been used to

• Export Selective — Exports the keys that are associated with a

tape cartridge barcode. You can type in all or part of a tape
cartridge barcode, and any keys that are associated with that
string will be exported. This is helpful if you only want to export
a single key associated with a particular tape cartridge.

contained on the selected destination encryption certificate. All the
selected keys are saved to a single file.
