prng.83a5b3 The prng self test state test for the SHA-512 mode failed

Explanation

The pseudo-random number device driver is not operational because the self test failed. After processing a published National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) test vector for the Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG) algorithm, the device driver was not in the expected working state. This failure might indicate that the cryptographic software or hardware is not working correctly. The processed NIST test vector was: Hash Drbg, Sha-512, Count #0.
