Re: Peer failed getting private key from HSM
Gari Singh <garis@...>
The easiest thing to do is to find the CKA_ID attribute of the private key stored in the HSM and then set the AltID property for the PKCS11 BCCSP.
AltID was added in 1.4.6 as I recall to help facilitate this type of config.

Are you setting up the peer and orderer to communicate with the external CA's HSM?
Did you generate the CSR yourself, and thus you have the private key and you provided it to them for import, or did the external CA provider generate everything and they fully own the private key? BCCSP doesn't use the SKI extension of the cert, it computes its own SKI by doing a SHA256 over the private key, the corresponding public signing cert is named with this SKI (SHA256) of the private key. If you had the private key (or access to it via PKCS11) you could perform the same operation BCCSP does to compute the SHA256 SKI.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Hyperledger Fabric] Peer failed getting private key from HSM

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to use a certificate issued by an external CA trough an HSM integration but it's not working. The peer node (v1.4.7) doesn't start and gives the following output (complete log available at https://pastebin.com/J6npgd6G):

I've found that my certificate (located at msp/signcerts) doesn't have the SKID extension (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3280#section-4.2.1.2) and the CA tech support have the excuse that this is a non-critical extension for end certificates. Now, is there a way BCCSP can find the corresponding private key of my certificate on the HSM?
Thanks for the help,
