During installation, the Data Recovery Manager prompts you to enter key recovery
agent passwords (by default, they are set to
on, depending on the number of agents). The number of passwords you must enter
depends on the key recovery agent scheme you chose; for details, see "Key Recovery
Agent Scheme" on page 198. If you are changing a password for the first time after
installation, in the "Old password" field you must enter the recovery agent password
you specified during installation. Then in the remaining fields, allow the key recovery
agent to enter the new password information. If you have more than one key recovery
agent, repeat this procedure for all the agents.
Old Password. Type the current password for the key repository.
New Password. Type the new password for the key repository.
Confirm Password. Retype the new password exactly as you typed it in the previous
field.
Click OK.

Data Recovery Manager's Key Pairs and Certificates

The Data Recovery Manager uses the following key pairs and certificates:
• Transport Key Pair and Certificate
• Storage Key Pair
• SSL Server Key Pair and Certificate
Transport Key Pair and Certificate
Every Data Recovery Manager you have installed has a Data Recovery Manager transport
certificate. The public key of the key pair that is used to generate the transport certificate is
used by the client software to encrypt an end-entity's encryption private key before it is sent
to the Data Recovery Manager for archival; only those clients capable of generating
dual-key pairs (one for signing and one for encryption) use the transport certificate. For
more information on how this certificate is used, see "Key Archival Process" on page 189.
