Name, Label, and Password Requirements
This page describes length and character requirements for setting labels, domains, passwords, and challenge secrets on the SafeNet Luna PCIe HSM. This information can also be found in relevant sections throughout the documentation. Refer to the applicable section below:
>Role Passwords or Challenge Secrets
HSM Labels
The HSM label created during initialization must be 1-32 characters in length. If you specify a longer label, it will automatically be truncated to 32 characters. The following characters are allowed:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 !@#$%^&*()-_=+[]{}\|/;:'",.<>?`~
Spaces are allowed; enclose the label in double quotes if it includes spaces. Including both spaces and quotation marks in a label may cause unexpected labeling behavior.
Cloning Domains
On password-authenticated HSMs, the domain string must be 1-128 characters in length. The following characters are allowed:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 !@#$%^*-_=+[]{}/:',.~
The following characters are problematic or invalid and must not be used in a domain string: "&;<>\`|()
Spaces are allowed, as long as the leading character is not a space; to specify a domain string that includes spaces using the -domain option, enclose the string in double quotation marks.
Partition Labels
The partition label created during initialization must be 1-32 characters in length. If you specify a longer label, it will automatically be truncated to 32 characters. The following characters are allowed:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 !@#$%^&*()-_=+[]{}\|/;:',.<>`~
Question marks (?
) and double quotation marks ("
) are not allowed.
Spaces are allowed; enclose the label in double quotation marks if it includes spaces.
Role Passwords or Challenge Secrets
In LunaCM, passwords and challenge secrets must be 7-255 characters in length. The following characters are allowed:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 !@#$%^&*()-_=+[]{}\|/;:',.<>?`~
Double quotation marks ("
) are problematic and should not be used in passwords.
Spaces are allowed; to specify a password that includes spaces using the -password option, enclose the password in double quotation marks.
