Your security domains do not match!!!

`Your security domains do not match, please run `fipsutil init` on both cards.
    Security Domains not properly synchronized (1).`

I am facing the above error while syncing from active device, I cant reinitialize fips in active device because its taking traffic now and peer having issue with fips keys, Is there any way to find the security domain which is configured in Active box? Is there any way to reset the security domain in active box without any impact ?

  • What changed to cause this error to start occurring? Could be that you just need to initialize the FIPS card on your standby unit.

     

    There's no way to find the currently configured security domain that I'm aware of. There's also no way to re-initialize your active unit without losing all of the keys stored in the FIPS HSM.
