<a name="manage-keys-kmu-cmu"></a>

If using the [latest SDK version series](use-hsm.md), use [CloudHSM CLI](cloudhsm_cli.md) to manage the keys in your AWS CloudHSM cluster.

If using the [previous SDK version series](choose-client-sdk.md), you can manage keys on the hardware security modules (HSM) in your AWS CloudHSM cluster using the key\$1mgmt\$1util (KMU) command line tool. Before you can manage keys, you must start the AWS CloudHSM client, start key\$1mgmt\$1util, and log in to the HSMs. For more information, see [Getting Started with key\$1mgmt\$1util](key_mgmt_util-getting-started.md).
