Using the keytool utility


The keytool utility is used to obtain a digitally signed identity certificate to replace the self-signed certificate. This utility is available with Oracle JDKs and BMC Atrium Atrium Single Sign-On. The keytool utility must be available within the shell command environment to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) or to import a CA signed certificate.

To verify that the keytool utility is available

  1. Open a shell command window.
  2. At the command prompt, type keytool, and press Enter

    Note

    The keytool utility from Oracle ® JDK Java 1.5 or 1.6 can also be used.

    If the keytool utility is available, a help message is generated that shows the keytool options.
     The following is the help output relevant to generating the CSR: 


    -certreq [-v] [-protected]
          [-alias <alias>] [-sigalg <sigalg>]
          [-file <csr_file>] [-keypass <keypass>]
          [-keystore <keystore>] [-storepass <storepass>]
          [-storetype <storetype>] [-providername <name>]
          [-providerclass <provider_class_name> [-providerarg <arg>]] ...
          [-providerpath <pathlist>]
  3. If the tool is available, proceed with the instructions for Obtaining and importing CA certificates.
     If the tool is not available, update the command shell environment to include the following path:

    <installationDirectory>/BMC Software/AtriumSSO/jdk/bin
