lunacm hsm reset Command

This command, and all the lunacm hsm commands, appear only when the current slot selected in lunacm is for a local HSM, like an installed Luna PCI-E.

HSM commands do not appear in the lunacm command menu when lunacm is directed at a slot corresponding to a remote Luna SA - lunacm has a client-only connection to a remote HSM and therefore cannot log in as SO to a remote HSM.

For Luna SA, the HSM commands are available via the Luna appliance's Luna Shell (lunash:>), which can be accessed via ssh if you have the required authentication.

SAMPLE OUTPUT

lunacm:>

If the Luna HSM has stopped responding, but your computer is still responsive, use the hsm reset command.
If you are a developer, trace what you were doing at the time the problem occurred and try to find another way to program the task that does not put the module in an unresponsive state. If that is not possible, then contact SafeNet Support with details of the problem and how to reproduce it.

If you are an end-user customer, using an application developed by a supplier other than SafeNet, contact that company for a resolution of the problem. They know how their application is programmed to accomplish tasks that use the Luna HSM, and they can determine possible workarounds or fixes. If the third-party supplier determines that there is an actual implementation fault with the Luna, they will contact SafeNet after gathering the relevant information.
