Create partitions
Create partitions for different tenants and specify the cryptographic resources for each partition. Each instance is assigned one partition, and a partition can be assigned to only one instance. Deleting an instance deletes the partition assigned to the instance. As a result, the partition data is also deleted and not left unsecured or accessible later. Number of keys and SSL context assignment depends on your application. For information about the number of cores to assign, see the NetScaler data sheet.
Important
After you assign a key store size and cores to an HSM partition, you cannot change them at run time. First detach the partition from the instance.
