Export a Certificate with Private and Public Keys

To export both the public and private keys with the certificate:

• Use the TSS EXPORT command with:
  • One of the PKCSxxxx formats.(the default format, CERTB64 exports the public key only)
  • A password specified with the PKCSPASS keyword
• When adding an exported certificate use the PKCSPASS keyword to specify the password used to protect the certificate during the TSS EXPORT

Example: exporting a certificate with private and public keys

This example exports both keys with the certificate:

TSS EXPORT(TESTXXX) DIGICERT(TESTSYS) 
                    DCDSN('TESTSYS.CERT.PKCS')
                    FORMAT(PKCS12DER)
                    PKCSPASS(user_specified_password)

TSS ADD(acid) DIGICERT(TESTSYS)
              LABELCERT(certificate label)
              DCDSN('TESTSYS.CERT.PKCS') 
              TRUST PKCSPASS(user_specified_password)
