Release 7.7.2 Advisory Notes
This section highlights important issues you should be aware of before deploying HSM firmware 7.7.2.
Appliance Software Version 7.7.1 Required for Firmware 7.7.2 Update
The SPKG file containing the Luna HSM firmware 7.7.2 update requires minimum Luna Network HSM Appliance Software 7.7.1. Update your appliance software before installing the firmware package.
Luna Network HSM Appliance BIOS and BMC Firmware Update Patch is a Prerequisite
The Network HSM Appliance BIOS and BMC Firmware Update Patch i is a prerequisite for upgrading to Luna Network HSM appliance software 7.7.1 and newer. If your appliance was already at version 7.7.0, then the patch is already installed. If you are updating from an appliance version earlier than 7.7.0, then the patch must be installed before upgrading to 7.7.1 or newer.
CAUTION! The Network HSM Appliance BIOS and BMC Firmware Update Patch must be installed over SSH only. Installation over a serial port connection will fail.
RSA Keygen Mechanism Remapping on Luna 7.7.1 or Newer Partitions Requires Minimum Luna HSM Client 10.4.0
Luna HSM Firmware 7.7.1 or newer partitions that have been individually set to FIPS mode using the new partition policy 43 require Luna HSM Client 10.4.0 or newer to automatically remap older RSA mechanisms as described in Mechanism Remap for FIPS Compliance.
