About this task

Before deploying or upgrading the HSM Signer or IBM Digital Asset Haven plugin, it is critical to verify the integrity of the container image. This ensures the image is authentic and has not been tampered with.

Procedure

  1. Verify the image signature by running the command:
     mkdir /opt/<installation_directory> 
    cd /opt/<installation_directory> 
    tar -zxvf IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID_v1.1.0.tgz
    The compressed IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID.tgz file consists of the following files:
    IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID_v1.1.0.tgz
    IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID.asc
  2. To verify the integrity of IBM Digital Asset Haven Hybrid image tar gz file, run the following command by using the signature file with the .asc suffix, and the public key that you downloaded with the suffix .pem, along with the image tar gz file.
    gpg --import digital-asset-haven-hybrid-gpg-public-key.pem
    gpg --verify IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID_v1.1.0.tgz.asc IBM_DIGITAL_ASSET_HAVEN_HYBRID_v1.1.0.tgz
