Initializing the user PIN

Edit online

After the token is initialized, it might be necessary to set the user PIN to allow applications to access token objects.

Refer to your device-specific documentation to determine whether the device requires a user to log in before accessing objects.

To initialize the user PIN, use the following steps.

  1. Open the token management screen by typing smit pkcs11.
  2. Select Source PKCS#11 Slot/Token and select a token.
  3. Select Manage PKCS#11 Tokens.
  4. Select Security Officer Login and type the SO PIN.
  5. Select Reset User Password.
  6. Enter a user PIN.
  7. Enter the user PIN again.
    Note: You can now also use the /usr/bin/p11km user tool to reset the user PIN.
