Luna Cloud HSM Releases Plugin 2.5.0 GA with the 10.7.2 Client

Plugin version 2.5.0 with the HSM client 10.7.2 is now available for download from Thales Data Protection on Demand for Luna Cloud HSM services.

See Upgrade Client for more information about upgrading your client.

Users are encouraged to upgrade to this latest client version and ensure it is supported in accordance with the Universal Client Supported Versions with Luna Cloud HSM table.

Added 

Luna client uses the existing config file

Customers can use the client without having to configure the "ChrystokiConfigurationPath" environment variable first.

Grouping startup for P11 commands in the plugin

The client startup time was very slow. To address this issue we now group the P11 commands together and send them as one to reduce the turnaround time.

Changed

- Using 10.7.2 or higher, users are no longer required to run setenv to configure the client to connect to the Luna Cloud HSM Service. However, setenv may still be used to configure the client for hybrid use cases or integrations where setting the ChrystokiConfigurationPath is required.
Please see Unpack the client for more information.

- Users can connect to a Luna Cloud HSM service by running the Luna Client in a docker container.
Please see Create a Docker Container to Access a Luna Cloud HSM Service for more information.

- A number of enhancements has been added to the LCH support tool. 
The support tool now creates an output file containing additional logging generated by running lunacm. It will also tell you the file was created, its name and the amount of time taken to run each test.
Please see Client connectivity support tool for more information.
