Master Key Entry Hands-on Lab, Part 1 of 2

This hands-on-lab will take the student thru the process of using PPINIT to load the initial master keys on a system and then proceed thru the process of creating key parts and loading new master keys via the ICSF/ISPF panels to complete the master key change process.  After completing this lab, the student will understand the master key change ceremony and the steps required to change the master keys without impacting their operational keys.  These same steps can be used to recover the crypto keys at a DR site or in case of a hardware problem in production.
