hsm fm smfs activate
Activate the Secure Memory File System. You must be logged in as HSM SO to use this command. This command activates the SMFS only – it does not activate new Functionality Modules. The HSM firmware must be reset after loading a new FM.
NOTE HSM Policy 51: Allow SMFS Auto Activation
If this policy is allowed, the Secure Memory File System (SMFS) is automatically activated on startup, providing a secure, tamper-enabled location in the HSM memory where Functionality Modules can load keys and parameters. If the policy is disallowed, the HSM SO must manually activate the SMFS each time the HSM reboots or loses power.
Thales recommends setting HSM policy 51 to 1 (ON) to avoid having to manually re-activate the SMFS if you need to reboot the HSM. Changing this policy (OFF-to-ON or ON-to-OFF) will destroy all existing application partitions.
