You may need to install certificates to use SSL with both the ODBC and JDBC drivers. Certificates are used to prove the identity of one or both parties in a secure socket connection. Certificates are stored in a database called a keystore by the Java implementation of SSL. Other implementations may use different terms for the certificate database, for example, mainframe security systems call it a keyring.
The SSL software used within the IDMS ODBC driver does not use a keyring or a keystore per-se, but simply requires you to name both the Client and Server certificate, as well as a common certificate directory where all signing certificates must reside.
A certificate that has been signed by a recognized Certificate Authority (CA) is automatically trusted by the SSL implementation.
