Problem

The NetBackup Deduplication Guides of versions 8.1.1, 8.1.2, and 8.2 wrongly state the following in the 'About MSDP Encryption using KMS service' topic:

The customer key is refreshed regularly and KMS service rotates the user key frequently (every 3 months by default).

Solution

Key creation and activation actions must be done manually (or using scripts) by the user.
