In previous releases, a SiteMinder smkeydatabase stored private key/certificate pairs and standalone certificates. SiteMinder used these keys and certificates for signing, verification, encryption and decryption functions. Each Policy Server in the deployment accessed a local version of the smkeydatabase.
This release replaces the need for multiple, local smkeydatabases with a single certificate data store. By default, the certificate data store is automatically configured and co–located with the policy store. All Policy Servers that share a common view into the same policy store have access to all certificates and keys in the environment.
Note: For more information about managing the certificate data store, see the Policy Server Configuration Guide and the Policy Server Administration Guide. For more information about migrating a smkeydatabase to the certificate data store, see the SiteMinder Upgrade Guide.
