NOTE
On Certificate Management System 6.0x, the certificate database is
cert7.db
,
not
cert8.db
.
2. Copy the certificate and key security databases from the 6.x server to the 7.3 server.
cp old_server_root/alias/cert-old_CA_instance-cert8.db
/var/lib/instance_ID/alias/cert8.db
cp old_server_root/alias/cert-old_CA_instance-key3.db
/var/lib/instance_ID/alias/key3.db
3. Open the Certificate System
/alias
directory.
cd /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/
4. Log in as
root
.
5. Set the file user and group to the Certificate System user and group.
# chown user:group cert8.db
# chown user:group key3.db
6. Log out as
root
, and log back into the system as the Certificate System user.
7. Set the file permissions.
chmod 00600 cert8.db
chmod 00600 key3.db
8. List the contents of the certificate database using the
certutil
tool. In this example,
-L
lists
the certificates in the database.
certutil -L -d .
