3.3 HSM Hardware Module Installation

This section describes the steps to connect a new HSM module to the PC. If you are replacing the HSM module on a configured M-HSM server, start from section HSM Module Replacement. If you are replicating the M-HSM server, see section Set Up a New HSM Module.

The M-HSM server requires the presence of a single HSM module. After the installation of nShield software, as shown in section Software Installation, the system must have module drivers and all nShield utilities installed.
