Exports an existing certificate or a private key from the smkeydatabase to a file. Certificate data is exported using PEM encoding. Private key data is exported using DER encoded PKCS8 format.
Arguments for the -export option are as follows:
Required. Identifies the certificate or key to be exported.
Required. Specifies the full path to the output file for the exported certificate or key.
Optional. Indicates whether a certificate or key is being exported. If no option is specified, a certificate is the default.
Required only when exporting a private key. Specifies the password used to encrypt the private key at the time the key gets exported to a file. You do not need a password to export the certificate holding the public key because certificates are exported in clear text.
When a private key is exported, it gets exported to the output file in encrypted form using this password. To add this same private key back to the smkeydatabase, run the -addPrivKey command and use this password.
