<h1 class="topictitle1">Initialize a key store file</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>A key store file is a database file that stores operational keys,
|
||
|
i.e. keys encrypted under the master key. Read this information if you plan
|
||
|
to keep records of your DES and PKA keys.</p>
|
||
|
<p> You can initialize two different types of key stores for your Cryptographic
|
||
|
Coprocessor. The Cryptographic Coprocessor uses one type to store PKA keys
|
||
|
and the other to store DES keys. You need to initialize a key store file if
|
||
|
you plan to store keys in it. Even though retain keys are not stored in a
|
||
|
key store file, one is still required because CCA searches for labels in key
|
||
|
store files before it searches for labels in the coprocessor.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The CCA CSP creates a DB2<sup>®</sup> key store file, if one does not already exist. If
|
||
|
a key store file already exists, the CCA CSP deletes the file and recreates
|
||
|
a new one.</p>
|
||
|
<p>To initialize a key store, you can use the Cryptographic Coprocessor configuration
|
||
|
utility. Click on <span class="uicontrol">Manage configuration</span> and then click
|
||
|
on either <span class="uicontrol">DES keys</span> or <span class="uicontrol">PKA keys</span> depending
|
||
|
upon what key store file you wish to initialize. With the utility, you can
|
||
|
only initialize a file if it does not already exist.</p>
|
||
|
<p>If you would rather write your own application to initialize a key store
|
||
|
file, you can do so by using the KeyStore_Initialize (CSNBKSI) API verb. </p>
|
||
|
<p>After you create a key store for your Cryptographic Coprocessor, you can
|
||
|
generate DES and PKA keys to store in your key store files.</p>
