W ARNING! THE ZEROIZE COMMAND WILL DECOMMISSION THE CPU
MODULE AND MAKE IT INOPERABLE (THE CPU WILL NOT REBOOT). THIS
COMMAND WILL PERMANENTLY ERASE ALL CRITICAL SECURITY
PARAMETERS AND CPU DISK-ON-CHIP MEMORY. A ZEROIZED CPU
CONTAINS NO SECURITY DATA OR OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARE. A
ZEROIZED CPU CAN BE RETURNED TO THE FACTORY FOR REPAIR.
This command is not intended for normal operational use. It is intended as a security
measure (per FIPS 140-2 requirements) to allow a SuperUser (Crypto Officer) to
completely remove all security-sensitive data that may be required before
decommissioning a CPU. This command has two options:
To zeroize only the standby CPU, type zeroize standby
This option is intended primarily for decommissioning a defective CPU module.
To zeroize both CPUs, type zeroize global which will first zeroize the standby
CPU and then the online CPU. This option is intended for decommissioning the
entire Broadmore system.
