However, can AutomaticKeyGenerationPeriod explain the difference between
first and second "zone add" run with the same policy?
Default policy:

generating 5 ZSKs of 1024 bits for policy 'default'.
# ods-enforcer zone add --zone def2.test.

generating 6 ZSKs of 1024 bits for policy 'default'.
I think I know where this comes from. You configure to pregenerate a
pool of 5 ZSKs for each zone for that specific policy.
When you add the first zone, it generates 5 keys, then uses 1 for
def1.test. 4 keys are left in the pool.
Second zone, it wants to have 2x5 keys in the pool so needs to generate
another 6.
Lab policy:
# ods-enforcer zone add --zone lab1.test. --policy lab
generating 1 KSKs of 2048 bits for policy 'lab'.
generating 2190 ZSKs of 1024 bits for policy 'lab'.
# ods-enforcer zone add --zone lab2.test. --policy lab
generating 1 KSKs of 2048 bits for policy 'lab'.
generating 4324 ZSKs of 1024 bits for policy 'lab'.
A similar thing is happening, this time your key lifetime is short. By
the time you are doing the 2nd zone add I guess the first was not
finished yet. I hope at this time only 1 key generation task is running,
Thank you for explanation!
else you will end up with 6514 keys instead of 4324.
This is something that is on my list of revising / discussing how key
pre-generation should work exactly.
(I do ods-enforcer setup && ods-control stop && softhsm-util
--init-slot && ods-control start before each experiment.)
I'm unsure what the effect is of "softhsm-util --init-slot" after you do
the setup command. During the setup the enforcer will have some
interaction with the HSM.
So the question is: How I'm supposed to correctly wipe out enforcer's DB and
HSM to start from scratch? :-)
Thank you for your time!
