Host machine management

Hosts

When a host machine is added to KeySafe 5, it is automatically added to a new HSM pool.

Moving a host to a different pool also adds all of its HSMs to that pool.

Remove host from KeySafe 5

You can only remove hosts from KeySafe 5 if the host is unhealthy and can not communicate with KeySafe 5. To remove a healthy host, you must first remove the KeySafe 5 agent software from the host.

The HSMs in a removed host machine remain in KeySafe 5, but become unhealthy when they are no longer attached to an agent.
