Removing Partitions

Only the HSM Security Officer can remove HSM partitions. When a partition is removed, it is cleared from the HSM and all of its contents are deleted.

To remove a partition from the HSM:

1.Open LunaCM (or run slot list if it is already open) and note the slot number of the partition you wish to remove.
