Certificate Manager and Data Recovery
Manager
If an organization requires key archival and recovery capabilities—for example, if
encrypted mail is widely used and the organization risks data loss if it is unable to
recover encryption keys—it can install a Data Recovery Manager. This can be done
without regard for the presence or absence of a separate Registration Manager.
For example, to add key storage and recovery to the scenario sketched in Figure
4-2, a Data Recovery Manager can be installed either in the same CMS instance in
which the Certificate Manager is installed or in a different CMS instance (which
can be located in the same server group on the same machine, in a different server
group on the same machine, or on a different machine.)
Figure 4-3 shows a Data Recovery Manager in a separate CMS instance. In this case
all communication between the Certificate Manager and the Data Recovery
Manager takes place over HTTPS. If the Data Recovery Manager and the Certificate
Manager are part of the same CMS instance, all communication takes place
internally and the two subsystems do not require separate host names or
additional configurations.
