Cool, thanks.  I see the gpg key in remote.log in the git-annex branch, so it's saved, which is the thing I care about most.  I'm now sure I could recover my data in a DR scenario.  However, I seem to be missing something with enableremote and how this is all supposed to work.

My main repo is ~/local/pics and here's the result of git annex info glacier:

    11:45:24 [24623]; git annex info glacier
    remote: glacier
    description: glacier backup [glacier]
    uuid: e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
    trust: semitrusted
    cost: 1050.0
    type: glacier
    creds: stored locally
    glacier vault: ...snip...
    encryption: encrypted (encryption key stored in git repository)
    chunking: none
    remote annex keys: 27519
    remote annex size: 47.95 gigabytes

I used git annex assistant to create a manual mode remote on my usb key.  This created a annex-pics directory on the usb key with a bare repo.

    11:50:50 [24626]; pwd
    /media/craig/KINGSTON/annex-pics
    11:50:51 [24627]; ls
    annex  branches  config  description  HEAD  hooks  info  objects  refs

I then did a git clone from the bare repo into a tmp dir:

    11:52:48 [24670]; git clone /media/craig/KINGSTON/annex-pics annex-pics
    Cloning into 'annex-pics'...
    done.

But when I enable the glacier remote, which I'd have to do in a DR scenario, I get an error:

    11:53:29 [24672]; git annex enableremote glacier
    (merging origin/git-annex into git-annex...)
    (recording state in git...)
    git-annex: Unknown special remote name.
    Known special remotes: gitannexpics

It knows about the remote, but hasn't assigned a name to it:

    11:53:36 [24673]; git annex info glacier
    git-annex: glacier is not a directory or an annexed file or a remote or a uuid

Doing a git annex info on the uuid does something, but I'm not clear what it does:

    11:53:56 [24675]; git annex info e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
    remote annex keys: 27519
    remote annex size: 47.95 gigabytes

An enable remote on the uuid doesn't work either:

    11:57:33 [24678]; git annex enableremote e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
    git-annex: Unknown special remote name.
    Known special remotes: gitannexpics

I feel like I'm missing a step.  What am I missing?

Thanks,
Craig
