15.3 Access Manager Keystores

A keystore is a location, such as a file, containing keys and certificates. Access Manager components can access the keystore to retrieve certificates and keys as needed. Keystores for Access Manager are already defined for the components.

Administration Console creates a keystore in the file system of the device that is assigned to the keystore. The operating system of the device determines the location:

opt/novell/devman/jcc/certs/<device>

The <device> can be idp (for Identity Server) and esp (for the Embedded Service Providers, including Access Gateways).

  1. Click Security > Certificates.

  2. Click the name of a certificate, then click Add Certificate to Keystores.

  3. Click the Select Keystore icon.
