Configure a Separate Database for the Key Store

The Key store is where the Policy Server stores keys used to encrypt cookies created by SiteMinder Agents.

To configure a separate database for the key store

  1. Choose Key Store from the Database drop-down list.
  2. Choose an available storage type (LDAP or ODBC) from the Storage drop-down list.

    Note: The Policy Server supports mixed LDAP/ODBC policy and key stores. The policy store can exist in an ODBC database and the key store can reside in an LDAP Directory Server or vice versa. For a list of supported databases, refer to the SiteMinder Platform Matrix on the Technical Support site.

  3. Specify Storage Options appropriate for the chosen storage type.
  4. Click Apply to save your settings, or click OK to save the settings and exit the Console.
