Thales install fails.
Cannot use Thales HSM with the BIG-IP system.
This occurs when the BIG-IP system is also configured as the RFS.
In the following procedure, when running nethsm-thales-rfs-install.sh, the script returns the IP address used by the RFS server. Use that IP address when running the 'rfs-setup' command. When prompted with: Did you successfully run the above 'rfs-setup' command on the RFS server? (Yes/No), perform the following steps: 1. Open a new SSH connection to the BIG-IP system. 2. Run the following command: /opt/nfast/bin/rfs-setup --force -g --write-noauth x.x.x.x. 3. Return to nethsm-thales-install.sh SSH screen and answer 'Yes'. The script should now exit with a success message.
Thales install script now runs successfully when the BIG-IP system is also configured as the RFS.
