cryptoCfg 2 Operands The cryptoCfg node initialization and configuration function has the following operands: --help -nodecfg Displays the synopsis for the node initialization and configuration function. This command is valid on all nodes. --initnode Initializes the node to prepare for the configuration of encryption options. Initialization must be performed on every node before configuration options may be set and encryption may be enabled. This command prompts for confirmation, because the initnode function overwrites any previously generated identification or authentication data on the node. Successful execution generates the node CP certificate, the key authentication center (KAC) certificate, the FIPS Crypto Officer, and the FIPS User key pairs. Some of the certificates generated with this command may need to be exported so that they can be registered with external entities, such as the key vault or the group leader, for mutual authentication. Refer to the Fabric OS Encryption Administrator's Guide for details. The --initnode function must be performed before the --initEE function may be performed. --initEE slot_number Initializes the encryption engine (EE). This command generates critical security parameters (CSPs) and certificates in the CryptoModule's security processor (SP). The CP and the SP perform a certificate exchange to register respective authorization data. Initialization must be performed on every encryption engine before configuration options may be set and encryption may be enabled. This command prompts for confirmation, because it overwrites any previously generated identification or authentication data on the SP. Existing key encryption keys (KEKs) such as link keys or master keys are erased. If this is not a first-time initialization, make sure to export the master key before running this command. If the encryption engine was configured with an LKM key vault, you will have to reconfigure the key vault to regenerate the Trusted Link after initializing the encryption engine. The --initnode function must be performed before the --initEE function may be performed. Specifies the slot number of the encryption engine to be initialized. This operand is required on bladed systems. --regEE slot_number Registers a previously initialized encryption engine with the CP or chassis. The CP and the specified encryption engine perform a certificate exchange to register respective authorization lists across the encryption engine's FIPS boundary. The encryption blade's certificate is registered with the CP. The CP, FIPS Crypto Officer, and FIPS User certificate are registered with the specified encryption engine. Specifies the slot number of the encryption engine to be registered. This operand is required on bladed systems. Fabric OS Command Reference 117 53-1001186-01
