Solaris Smartcard Administration Guide

To Add a Missing ATR

When you try to add a smart card in the Smartcard Console, a screen displays the ATR of the card inserted in the reader. If the ATR displayed does not exist in the list of valid ATRs, add the ATR to the card-name.ATR property.

See To Add Support for a New Card Type (New ATR) for more information. See command-line example below.

Example—Adding a Missing ATR (Command Line)

Display ocfserv properties to see if the card_name.ATR property exists.


# smartcard -c admin

For example, ocfserv lists a property MySCM.0.ATR, where MySCM is the user-friendly name of the card reader. This property reflects the ATR of the smart card inserted in the reader. This property is temporary and is added by ocfserv only for the time the card is in the reader. This property is removed when the card is removed.

Add this ATR to the card_name.ATR property if the ATR displayed by this property does not exist in the list of valid ATRs.
