partition createchallenge

Create the legacy application partition's Crypto Officer challenge for a PED-authenticated SafeNet Luna USB HSM or SafeNet Luna PCIe HSM.

In the HSM's administrative partition, log in first, as the HSM SO.

Run the partition createchallenge command after you run the partition createuser command.

Run the partition createchallenge command from the HSM's administrative partition, specifying the slot number corresponding to the target application partition.

Record the 16-character text string displayed by the PED, using a text editor to avoid transcription errors that sometimes occur with handwriting.

The equivalent of this command for a PSO partition is the role createchallenge command, which is run within the application partition, and which is run by the partition SO.
