    Software requirement The coprocessor requires support software, for example, the IBM 4769 CCA Support Program, for both the host machine and for its internal firmware. Operating system support is determined by the support software. This publication does not discuss the installation of support software.

    Installing the coprocessor This section describes installing the IBM 4769-001 PCIe Cryptographic Coprocessor. About this task Note that on a Microsoft Windows operating system, it is necessary to install the CCA support software before installing a coprocessor. Other supported operating systems do not require this, but it is recommended.
  • Page 15: Replacing Coprocessor Batteries

    Attention: If you remove either of the batteries without first backing up the power with a fresh battery, the data in protected memory can be lost. You must provide backup power using a USB cable connected to the cards USB micro connector. No kit is available from IBM to perform the battery replacement.

  • Page 17 5. Replace both batteries with the new batteries inserting one battery at a time to the top socket, aligning the polarities as marked below. Attention: Make sure proper orientation of the batteries is performed or this will cause battery power to be lost. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2021...
  • Page 18 9. Turn your system ON. The PCIe Cryptographic coprocessor runs its power-on self-test (POST). 10. The batteries are lithium coin cell batteries. Recycle or dispose of the old batteries as required by local law. You have completed the procedure for replacing the PCIe cryptographic coprocessor batteries. 18 IBM 4769 Installation...
