SET DATE AND TIME
2.9.1
[Optional Step] Set Date and Time
Requirements:
Logged into TSM-WEB and the KCED connected to the TSM500i.
Prism sets the date and time on the TSM500i HSM system to UTC +2 hours which is the local time where the
hardware is manufactured. In the case of a TSM500i-NSS, the same date and time is applied to the clock of the
embedded computer.
Setting the TSM500i-NSS date and time will result in the embedded computer system time also being set so
that both stay synchronised. The TSM500i-NSS does not support daylight saving time.
The HSM’s date and time is a Critical Security Parameter for certain cryptographic functions, and should be
corrected at this point.
This service requires two Crypto Officers to login to the TSM500i HSM using the KCED.
i.e.
Access Control Mode
must
be
BL:ROLE_
DUAL_OFFICER
In the browser on the
TSM Management
page click on “Date and Time” tab. Enter the correct date and time
using the format indicated on the page then click
SET CLOCK
to update the date and time in the TSM500i HSM
and the embedded computer system.
2.9.2

M
anagement
