Key Stores

When the Policy Server generates dynamic keys, it saves and maintains these keys in the key store. The key store is a repository from which all Policy Servers retrieve the most current keys. Web Agents obtain the current keys from the Policy Servers. The key store may be part of a SiteMinder policy store or maintained as a stand-alone key store.

Note: If an administrator issues multiple agent key rollovers in rapid succession, this action may invalidate all cookies issued for single sign-on and may disrupt single sign-on for all users currently logged in. After these users re-authenticate, single sign-on will operate normally.
