Adding server certificates to a key repository
After the CA sends you a new server certificate, you add it to the certificate
store from which you generated the request. If the CA sends the certificate
as part of an e-mail message, copy the certificate into a separate file.
Notes:
- You do not need to perform this procedure if the server certificate is
signed by your local CA.
- Before you import a server certificate in PKCS #12 format into DCM, you
must first import the corresponding CA certificate.
Use the following procedure to receive a server certificate into the queue
manager certificate store:
- Access the DCM interface, as described in Accessing DCM.
- In the Manage Certificates task category in the
navigation panel, click Import Certificate. The Import
Certificate page displays in the task frame.
- Select the radio button for your certificate type and click Continue. Either the Import Server or Client Certificate page or the
Import Certificate Authority (CA) Certificate page displays in the task frame.
- In the Import File field, type the filename of the
certificate you want to import and click Continue. DCM
automatically determines the format of the file.
- If the certificate is a Server or client certificate,
type the password in the task frame and click Continue.
DCM informs you that the certificate has been imported.
