The IBM® i keystore type IBMi5OSKeyStore does
not recognize or generate .sth password stash files. Instead
it keeps an internal record of the password for the .kdb keystore
file where it is created. If the .kdb file is moved, the
password is no longer associated with the keystore. In that case,
you must use the Digital Certificate Manager (DCM) to recreate the
internal record of the password for the .kdb keystore file.
About this task
To recreate the internal record of the password for the
.kdb keystore
file, start the DCM. For more information, see the Digital Certificate
Manager information.
Procedure
- Click Select a Certificate Store.
- Select Other System Certificate Store.
- Enter the certificate store path and filename.
- Enter the certificate store password.
- Click Continue.
- In the left hand panel, select Manage Certificate Store.
- Click Change password.
- Enter the new password and confirm it. Note
that DCM requires a different password than the one you specified
in step 4.
- Select Automatic login.
- Click Continue.
- Click OK when a message displays that confirms that
the password is changed.
- Repeat steps 1 through 5 to create the internal record
of the new password for the .kdb keystore file.
- Repeat steps 1 through 12 to change the password back
to the original password and to create the internal record of the
original password for the .kdb keystore file.
Results
You have recreated the internal record of the password for
the
.kdb keystore file.
