DEFAULT Keyword—Key Ring Default Certificate

Valid on z/OS.

Use the DEFAULT keyword to specify that the digital certificate being added to a key ring is the default certificate for the key ring. Only one certificate within the key ring can be the default. If a default already exists, its DEFAULT status is removed, and the specified certificate becomes the default certificate.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS ADDTO(acid) KEYRING(8byte name)
               [LABLRING(237byte ring name)]
                \{RINGDATA(acid,digicert)\}
                \{RINGDATA(CERTSITE,digicert)\}
                \{RINGDATA(CERTAUTH,digicert)\}
               [DEFAULT]
               [USAGE(PERSONAL|CERTSITE|CERTAUTH)]
