Thanks Hakan! It would be nice to add operator capability level to readme.

Make sure you are using the latest version of Fabric CA.

With the AWS HSM, you need to add "AltId" to your bccsp configuration:

bccsp:
  default: PKCS11
  pkcs11:
    Library: /opt/cloudhsm/lib/libcloudhsm_pkcs11.so
    Pin: 'user:password'

    AltId: $STRING
    Label: cavium
    hash: SHA2
    security: 256

AltId can be any string label you want to use.  If the label does not exist on the HSM, a new key will be generated.

Thank again, guys. When I configure fabric CA to use AWS HSM it crashes with the below error,

 My BCCSP configuration looks like this,

  pkcs11:
    Library: /opt/cloudhsm/lib/libcloudhsm_pkcs11.so
    Pin: 'user:password'
    Label: cavium

Any pointer would be really helpful.

Thanks

You can follow the configuration instructions in the fabric docs here: https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/release-2.2/hsm.html

Just make sure you match the docs version to the Fabric version you are using.

Best,

Chris

I didn't find any blog around fabric using AWS cloudshm, however, I understand that I need to run aws hsm client on the same machine fabric component would run. Can someone suggest what the PKCS11 section would look like? This is how it currently looks if I use softhsm. 

bccsp:
  default: PKCS11
  pkcs11:
    Library: /usr/lib/softhsm/libsofthsm2.so
    Pin: XX

BTW, I see nothing wrong with the official docs containing these kinds of links. Being helpful to new users should take precedence over concerns about the appearance of favoring one vendor over another, and the latter can be mitigated by providing multiple such links and adding to them when asked.

Would you be able to share some of those links if you have them handy, it might be beneficial for others as well searching through this mailing list.

Hello Shantanu,

The documentation purposefully leaves out any mention of vendor-specific platforms or technologies and leaves that part to the user.  There are some who have posted articles on Medium and YouTube for the type of material you are looking for.  Hope this helps.

Hello Team,

Do we have any documentation around how to use AWS cloud HSM with hyperledger fabric. 

Thanks
