Backup and Restore From the Client to a Local Backup HSM (LunaCM)
This section describes how to use LunaCM to backup and restore a partition from the client to a locally connected SafeNet Luna Backup HSM (Backup HSM). To perform a local backup, you connect the SafeNet Luna Backup HSM to a USB port on the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation and use LunaCM to log in as the Crytpo Officer (CO) and backup any SafeNet Luna Network HSM or SafeNet Luna PCIe HSM partitions that are visible as slots.
The backup operation can go from a source partition (on a SafeNet Luna Network HSM) to an existing partition on the Backup HSM, or if one does not exist, a new partition can be created during the backup. The restore operation, however, cannot create a target partition on a SafeNet Luna Network HSM; it must already exist.
You can restore a partition backup to the source HSM or to a different SafeNet Luna Network HSM. The HSM you restore to must already have a suitable partition created for the restored objects. The partition can have any name - it does not need to match the name of the source partition on the backup HSM.
You can connect the Backup HSM to a SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation to backup any SafeNet Luna Network HSM or SafeNet Luna PCIe HSM partitions that are visible as slots in LunaCM, as illustrated in the following figure:
Figure 1: Configuration for SafeNet Luna Network HSM/PCIe partition backup/restore using a Backup HSM connected to a local client workstation
In this configuration, you connect the Backup HSM and SafeNet Remote PED, via USB, to your SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation. The SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance is remote to the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation and is connected using NTLS. Any installed PCIe devices communicate with the SafeNet Luna HSM client over the PCI bus.
Any partitions you want to backup must be registered with the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation, and be visible as slots in LunaCM. The Backup HSM most also be visible as a slot.
If you are backing up PED-authenticated partitions, you require a PED. If you want to backup SafeNet Luna Network HSM partitions, the PED must have remote capability (Remote PED). Remote PED uses the pedserver/pedclient processes running on the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation and on the SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance to provide remote PED services for the network-attached SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance. The PED provides authentication for all of the attached HSMs (the USB-connected SafeNet Luna Backup HSM, the NTLS-connected SafeNet Luna Network HSM, and the PCI bus-connected SafeNet Luna PCIe HSM). Every slot on the backup must have same domain (red PED key) as the matching slot on the source HSMs.
NOTE If you have Private Key Cloning switched off for the current partition, then the backup operation proceeds, but skips over any private keys, and clones only the permitted objects onto the Backup HSM. Similarly, if you restore from a token that includes private keys, but the target partition has Private Key Cloning disallowed, then all other objects are recovered to the partition, but the private keys are skipped during the operation.
Backing Up a Partition to a Locally Connected Backup HSM
You can backup any slots you can see on the client workstation. You must log in as the Crypto Officer to the partition you want to backup.
To backup an application partition to a Backup HSM connected to a SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation:
1.Configure the remote PED, as described in Remote PED Setup.
2.Start the LunaCM utility on the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation.
C:\Program Files\SafeNet\LunaClient>lunacm.exe LunaCM V7.0 - Copyright (c) 2006-2017 Gemalto, Inc. Available HSM's: Slot Id -> 1 HSM Label -> SA52_P1 HSM Serial Number -> 500409014 HSM Model -> LunaSA HSM Firmware Version -> 7.0.1 HSM Configuration -> Luna User Partition With SO (PED) Signing With Cloning Mode HSM Status -> OK Slot Id -> 2 HSM Label -> BackupHSM Serial Number -> 700101 HSM Model -> G5Backup HSM Firmware Version -> 6.26.0 HSM Configuration -> Remote Backup HSM (PED) Backup Device HSM Status -> OK Current Slot Id: 1
3.Use the slot set command to go to the slot you want to back up:
lunacm:> slot set slot 1 Current Slot Id: 1 (Luna User Slot 7.0.1 (PED) Signing With Cloning Mode) Command Result : No Error
4.Establish that the HSM is listening for a SafeNet Remote PED:
lunacm:>ped get HSM slot 1 listening to local PED (PED id=0). Command Result : No Error lunacm:> ped connect ip 192.20.10.190 Command Result : No Error lunacm:> ped get HSM slot 1 listening to remote PED (PED id=100). Command Result : No Error
The SafeNet Luna Network HSM is now listening for PED interaction via the link between PedClient on the SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance and PedServer on the workstation, and is not expecting a PED connected directly at the location of the SafeNet Luna Network HSM.
5.Log in as the Crypto Officer (CO) to the partition in the current slot. This is the partition that you want to back up:
lunacm:> role login -name Crypto Officer Option -password was not supplied. It is required. Enter the password: ******* User is activated, PED is not required. Command Result : No Error
6.Disconnect the PED from your source HSM (slot 1 in this example), and connect to the Backup HSM (slot 2 in this example). The PED remains physically connected by USB cable to the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation, and remains in Remote mode - you are merely changing slots that are in conversation with that PED.
a.First, tell the SafeNet Luna Network HSM to disconnect from Remote PED with the command ped disconnect.
b.Tell the Backup HSM to connect to Remote PED (it makes no difference that the PED and the Remote Backup HSM are USB-connected to the same workstation/laptop; when use of Remote PED is invoked by command ped connect and verified by ped get, all HSM-PED interaction takes place between PedClient running on that workstation and PedServer, also running on that workstation).
lunacm:> ped connect ip 192.20.10.189 -slot 2 Command Result : No Error lunacm:> ped get -slot 2 HSM slot 2 listening to remote PED (PED id=100). Command Result : No Error
7.Use the partition archive backup command to perform the backup from the current slot (slot 1 in the example, see above) to the partition that you designate on the Backup HSM. Now that the Backup HSM is listening correctly for a PED, the target partition can be created, with PED action for the authentication.
lunacm:> partition archive backup -slot 2 -par SAbck1 Logging in as the SO on slot 2. Please attend to the PED. Creating partition SAbck1 on slot 2. Please attend to the PED. Logging into the container SAbck1 on slot 2 as the user. Please attend to the PED. Creating Domain for the partition SAbck1 on slot 2. Please attend to the PED.

8.Backup is complete, and can be verified if you like.
Restoring a Partition from a Locally Connected Backup HSM
You can restore a backup to any slot you can see on the client workstation. You must log in as the Crypto Officer to the partition you want to restore to.
To restore an application partition from a Backup HSM connected to a SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation:
1.Create a target partition for the restore operation on the HSM you are restoring to, if it does not already exist, and register the partition with the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation so that it is visible as a slot in LunaCM.
2.Start the LunaCM utility on the SafeNet Luna HSM client workstation.

lunacm:> ped connect ip 192.20.10.190
Command Result : No Error
lunacm:> ped get
HSM slot 1 listening to remote PED (PED id=100).
Command Result : No Error
The SafeNet Luna Network HSM is now listening for PED interaction via the link between PEDclient on the SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance and PEDserver on the workstation, and is not expecting a PED connected directly at the location of the SafeNet Luna Network HSM.
5.Log into the partition in the current slot. This is the partition that you want to restore to.
lunacm:> role login -name Crypto Officer
Option -password was not supplied. It is required.
Enter the password: *******
User is activated, PED is not required.
Command Result : No Error
6.Use the partition archive restore command restore the partition from the Backup HSM to the current slot, adding to, or replacing, the current partition contents:
partition archive restore -slot <backup-hsm-slotnumber> -partition LunaSAPartitionname -password ClientPassword -replace
NOTE In the command above, you can use -add instead of -replace. Adding might result in unwanted behaviors, such as having two keys with the same label, if one existed in the HSM Partition and one on the backup token. The two would be assigned different handles, however.
