Confirm Software Installation

After the installation of the two packages, you should be able to confirm installation of the Eracom client utilities.

To confirm that the Eracom client utilities were installed

  1. Open a command prompt
  2. At the command prompt, enter in the following command:
    hsmstate
    

    The following output appears:

    hsmstate
    HSM device 0:   HSM in NORMAL MODE. RESPONDING
    
  3. Enter the following command:
    ctconf
    

    The first time you run this command you will be asked to set the pin for two roles, Admin and Administrator.

    Select pins for both roles.

  4. Enter the ctconf command again.

    The following output appears, demonstrating that the client utilities installed on the directory host are communicating with the Eracom HSM:
