In emergency situations such as disaster recovery, an Emergency Key Generator (EKG) can issue a temporary key for the components. An EKG key is valid for ten days from the date of activation, and it is valid for all components and on all CPUs.
Each EKG key begins with the EKG statement, and is in the following format:
EKG(nnnnnnnn)
Specifies the emergency key.
It is not necessary to implement EKG keys to activate components in a disaster recovery situation, because CA LMP allows the components to run uninterrupted regardless of the CPU on which they are running.
Note: When bypassing EKG, warning messages are issued at any time CA MIM performs authorization checking. These messages do not impact component operation, but they are visible on the console and to operators.
To suppress these messages, contact CA-TLC support and, in an emergency, request an EKG key. Once you have obtained an EKG key, edit the CALMP KEYS file and add the key information as shown in the example.
