Description

A description of what/who this certificate is for.

Path

The path to the certificate file (in the IFS - not in QDLS) that you are

 

importing. The path must end with '/' as this is concatenated with the file

 

name.

File name

The name of the file in the IFS containing the certificate.

Cert. alias

The alias of the certificate if the file contains more than one certificate.

Password

The password used when you exported the certificate. The password is

 

hidden on this display.

Cert. authority States where this certificate can be used. *PUBLIC means it can be used for all spooled files. If you state a user profile only spooled files owned by this user can have this certificate attached.

Active period The period where this certificate is intended to be used. This can later be extended to the validity period of the certificate. This option is so you will get a warning when the active period is running out.

A change of 'Cert. authority' or 'Active period' after import require that the password for the certificate is re-entered.

Secure from move

Tells InterForm400 if the imported certificate is to follow the APF3812 library. If you say 'Y' the certificate will be encrypted with the serial number of the iSeries and must be reinstalled if you move the InterForm400 installation to another machine in the future.

If you use 'N' the certificate will be encrypted but will follow the InterForm400 installation i.e. if you restore the APF3812 library on another machine the certificate will still run. For maximum security 'Y' is recommended.

The data under 'Imported Certificate Information' is updated automatically after the import and use of the certificate.
