TKE upgrade considerations
Considerations before upgrading a TKE or copying data from an existing TKE
• DVD-RAM is not supported on a TKE 7.2 or later system
• Copying files to the TKE 7.0 or TKE 7.1 hard drive
• Copying files to a USB flash memory drive while on a TKE 7.0 or TKE 7.1 system
• Preparing for a new TKE local crypto adapter
DVD-RAM is not supported on a TKE 7.2 or later system
Important: If you are still using DVD-RAM on a pre-TKE 7.2 system, DVD-RAM is not supported on TKE
7.2 or later systems. If you want to continue to use files that are on your DVD-RAM on a TKE 7.2 or later,
you must remove the data from the DVD-RAM before your move to the TKE 7.2 or later system.
Beginning with TKE 7.2, you can no longer read files from a DVD-RAM. Therefore, if you have a DVD-RAM
that is formatted for TKEDATA (TKEDATA DVD-RAM) and you want to use the files from the TKEDATA DVD-
RAM on a TKE 7.2 or later system, do one of the following procedures:
• Copy the files from the TKEDATA DVD-RAM to the TKE's hard drive before upgrading the TKE to version
7.2 or later. For more information, see Copying files to the TKE 7.0 or TKE 7.1 hard drive.
• Copy the files from the TKEDATA DVD-RAM to a USB flash memory drive that is formatted for TKEDATA
from a TKE 7.0 or TKE 7.1 system. For more information, see Copying files to a USB flash memory drive
while on a TKE 7.0 or TKE 7.1 system.
