Import the CA Arcot Server Certificate into the JCS Keystore

This procedure is for the administrator of CA Identity Manager.

After the CA Arcot administrator has set up two-way SSL, you can import the Arcot certificate into the JCS keystore.

Follow these steps:

1. Decide which certificate to import into the JCS keystore as a trusted certificate:
   • The Arcot server certificate. If the application server uses a different certificate, import this certificate too.
   • The root certificate of the certificate authority that has issued the Arcot server certificate, and the application server certificate
2. Import the chosen certificates:
   1. Copy the certificate to the following folder:

      jcs_install\conf 
      

   2. Start a Command Prompt window and navigate to the folder into which you copied the certificate.
   3. Enter the following command, depending on your operating system:

      Windows:

      ..\jvm\bin\Keytool -importcert -keystore ssl.keystore -storepass password -file \arcot_ca_cert.cer
      

      Linux or Solaris

      ../jvm/bin/Keytool -importcert -keystore ssl.keystore -storepass password -file \arcot_ca_cert.cer
