Start the daemons

Two daemons are necessary for hardware encryption used in the JSSE study.

The daemon startup can be automated with the Linux® chkconfig command. The cryptographic z90crypt device driver for Linux for IBM® System z® and IBM System z10™ is a generic character device that routes work to a supported cryptographic coprocessor or accelerator device installed on the system. If the associated daemon is started, cryptographic work can be routed to the Cryptographic facility accelerator.

The daemon named pkcsslotd is a slot manager running as a daemon to control token slots provided to applications. Start the daemons manually as the root user by issuing the following commands:
rcz90crypt start  
rcpkcsslotd start
