(Optional) Some SiteMinder features and some SiteMinder product integrations require keys for signing, verifying, encrypting, and decrypting information. The purpose of the SiteMinder key database (smkeydatabase) is to make the private keys and the certificate authority (CA) certificates available to the environment.
The smkeydatabase is a separate component from a SiteMinder key store, and is a local, embedded database that does not require an external store.
For example, use of the SiteMinder Microsoft InfoCard authentication scheme and integrating SiteMinder with Federation Security Services are both examples of an implementation that require a smkeydatabase.
Note: For more information about a smkeydatabase, see the documentation roadmap.
