Import and export keys.

Map Step 3 towards the goal: Configuring LTPA and working with keys

About this task

To support single sign-on (SSO) in WebSphere® Application Server across multiple WebSphere® Application Server domains or cells, you must share the LTPA keys and the password among the domains. You can import LTPA keys from other domains and export keys to other domains.
Note: You should disable automatic key generation if you import or export keys to or from another cell. This disabling causes the imported keys to get lost and the exported keys to no longer interoperate with this cell over time

You must recycle the node agents and application servers to accept the new keys. If any of the node agents are down, run a manual file synchronization utility from the node agent machine to synchronize the security configuration from the deployment manager.

Read the Importing Lightweight Third Party Authentication keys and Exporting Lightweight Third Party Authentication keys articles for more information.
