token backup update firmware

Update the firmware on a backup token, using a firmware update package available on the SafeNet appliance. The package must be transferred to the SafeNet appliance by scp (individually or as a component of a system update), and you must login to the backup token as Token Administrator (using the token backup login command) or SO before the token backup update firmware command is run. The command requires no package name.

The term "token" in this case refers to removable token-format HSMs connected via SafeNet DOCK 2 and USB, or SafeNet Luna Backup HSM, connected via USB.

Before you can use this command, you must:

>Acquire the secure package update file from SafeNet and send the file to the SafeNet Luna Network HSM (using scp or pscp)

>Open the file on the SafeNet Luna Network HSM using the package update command

NOTE   Firmware update is a local operation only, and is not supported remotely.

A capability update or a firmware update is meant to be applied just one time to an HSM. If you attempt to re-apply a capability update to an HSM that already has the capability installed, the system throws an error like " C0000002 : RC_GENERAL_ERROR ". A similar result occurs if you attempt to install a particular firmware update more than once on one HSM. This is expected behavior.
