Crypto question
So I was asked this about pkcsconf. What if we lose our PINs?Can you find them or clear them? I don't know! Where are these kept?It's got to be somewhere on the server itself or does the HW remember which virtual server has what pin? I can't think of anything in VM that would keep track of them. This is for Linux under VM - CRYPTO APVIRT in the directory. Marcy This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

Re: Crypto question
Your pins are kept in the guest. Only for secure-key ops (APDED, not APVIRT) does the hardware retain keys. VM does not keep any pins or key material.

Re: Crypto question
The user pins can be recovered as long as you still know the pin of the security officer (SO pin). If you forget the SO pin you are out of luck. You must reset the pins. To do that delete the files NVTOK.DAT, MK_USER and MK_SO from /var/lib/opencryptoki// where is "lite" for the ica token, "ccatok" for the cca token and "swtok" for the software token.

Libica-1.2 cannot access CEX2* devices. Support for CEX2C devices was added in libica-1.3.2, and support for CEX2A devices is available from libica-1.3.3.
