Start by loading a set of Key Components into the appliance.

  1. After starting the KMSConsoleTool, verify the Load Key Component radio button is selected.

  2. Specify a Key Name between 1 and 128 alphanumeric characters long. This Key Name will be used to associate multiple Key Components with a specific key, but serves no further purpose once the assembled key is loaded.

  3. Provide the first Key Component, its corrosponding Key Check Value, and set the K value to 1. If your key only has two components, change the N value to 2.

  4. Fill in the requested SAKA user information (DID, Username, Password). The user must have Key Management Operator (KMO) privilege to authenticate to this web service.

  5. After the required fields are filled, the Submit button becomes enabled. Click Submit. Results and corresponding returned messages are listed here:

    Client received SOAP fault from server: SKL-ERR-1029: Request failed...

    Success

  6. If the Key Component was successfully loaded, the next Key Component from this set should be loaded. Provide the second Key Component, its KCV, and set K to 2.

  7. Click Submit. If the Key Component loaded, “Successfully loaded key component on server,” will appear on the bottom left.

  8. If your key has three components, then a third Key Component must be loaded. Provide the third Key Component, its KCV, and set K to 3.
