Test Image#

The test image is provided for testing and development purposes. It does not offer to run the NetHSM process with hardware-based separation (KVM), to encrypt the data store, or to use an external etcd. The connection between the NetHSM process and the integrated key-value store is unencrypted. The image is distributed as OCI image and can be run locally with a compatible executor such as Docker and Podman.

Rispetto all’hardware NetHSM, le seguenti funzioni non sono implementate nell’API REST del contenitore software:

  • Network configuration

  • Factory reset

  • Reboot

  • Software update

The image can be obtained from Docker Hub.

Avvertimento

Do not use the test image under any circumstances for production data and use cases. For production environments with high security demands you must use the production image.

Tagging Policy#

The images in the repository are tagged with the Git commit hash from the main branch of the repository. The latest image is tagged with testing.

Configurazione#

The image can be configured with the following environment variables.
