sysconf reimage start

Restore the appliance and the HSM to the pre-installed baseline software/firmware versions.

If you have an older Luna Network HSM 7, the baseline versions are:

>Luna Appliance Software 7.2.0

>Luna HSM Firmware 7.0.3

If you have a newer Luna Network HSM 7 or have installed the Re-Image Software 7.7.1 and Firmware 7.3.3 Patch, the baseline versions are:

>Luna Appliance Software 7.7.1

>Luna HSM Firmware 7.3.3

You must be logged in as HSM SO to use this command.

CAUTION!   This command is destructive; all partitions and cryptographic objects will be destroyed, and the HSM must be re-initialized. The operation takes 15-20 minutes, and the appliance reboots twice. Do not reboot the appliance manually during this time. Ensure that you have a power backup in place before re-imaging the appliance.

Re-imaging to an older appliance software version might expose vulnerabilities that were fixed in newer releases.

NOTE   If you have an older Luna Network HSM 7, this feature requires that it has been upgraded to minimum Luna HSM Firmware 7.3.0 and Luna Appliance Software 7.3.0 at one point.

The Appliance Re-image feature is not supported on HSMs that use Functionality Modules. If you have ever enabled HSM policy 50: Allow Functionality Modules, even if the policy is currently disabled, you cannot re-image the HSM appliance. See FM Deployment Constraints for details.

Syntax

sysconf reimage start [-base]

Argument(s) Shortcut Description
-base -b Restore the Luna Network HSM 7 to its original capability settings. With this option included, licenses such as partition packs are not preserved after the appliance re-image process. Purchased update licenses are still valid, and you can re-apply them (or apply them to a different Luna Network HSM 7) using the Thales Licensing Portal.

Example

lunash:>sysconf reimage start

   The HSM Administrator is logged in. Proceeding...

   To remove audit logs from the HSM, you must configure the Audit Logs feature.
   If you do not configure Audit Logs before re-imaging, the existing audit log history will be retained in the HSM.

   Type 'proceed' to continue the re-imaging process without configuring Audit Logs, or 'quit' to cancel.
   > proceed
   Proceeding...
