Make the pre-deployed (initialized) token/hsm available to the Luna SA appliance as another (removable) HSM partition or PKCS#11 slot, for use by your application(s).
Note: It may take up to one minute for the token to be visible to all clients.
An external Luna HSM can be USB-connected to a Luna SA appliance for:
•local backup/restore operations (Luna Backup HSM)
•PKI bundle operations (Luna G5 HSM)
Luna SA does not pass PED operations and data through to an externally connected Luna HSM from a Luna PED that is connected locally to the Luna SA.
If the external HSM is PED-authenticated, then the options for Luna PED connection are:
•local PED connection, directly to the affected HSM, when needed, or
•Remote PED connection, passed through the Luna SA
Note: Support for PKI Bundles with Remote PED begins at firmware version 6.10.1 in the external HSM.
Note: Support for locally connected Backup HSM with Remote PED,
begins at firmware version 6.10.1 in the external HSM.
Note: Use of Remote PED with an external device is made possible when you set up with the commands
hsm ped vector init -serial <serial#_of_external_HSM>
and
hsm ped connect -serial <serial#_of_external_HSM>
before using token pki or token backup commands.
token pki deploy -label <token_label> -serial <serial_number>
Parameter | Shortcut | Description |
---|---|---|
-label | -l |
Specifies the name of the inserted, pre-deployed token to deploy. |
-serial | -s | Specifies the serial number of the inserted, pre-deployed token to deploy. |
lunash:> token pki deploy -label mylunag5pki -serial 475289
********************************************** * * * About to activate the token for testing. * * Please pay attention to the PED * * * ********************************************** Please enter the current user challenge: Success deploying token mylunag5pki with serial num 475289 !
Command Result : 0 (Success)
Note: The above command prepares an HSM, externally connected to a Luna SA appliance, for operation in the PKI use-case. However, once the external HSM has been deployed for PKI bundle, it must be assigned to the remote client, by means of the command "client assignpartition".
