Keys and Certificates for the Main Subsystems

SSL Server Key Pair and Certificate

Every Data Recovery Manager you have installed has at least one SSL server
certificate. The first time you generated this certificate is when you installed the
Data Recovery Manager. The default nickname for the certificate is
Server-Cert cert-<instance_id>
instance in which the Data Recovery Manager is installed.
The Data Recovery Manager's SSL server certificate was issued by the CA to which
you submitted the certificate signing request. You might have submitted the
request to the Certificate Manager that is installed in the same instance, an
internally deployed CA, or a public CA. To find out the issuer name, follow the
instructions in "Viewing the Certificate Database Content" on page 502.
The Data Recovery Manager uses its SSL server certificate to do SSL server-side
authentication to the following:
The end entity services interface (the HTTPS port)
The Data Recovery Manager Agent Services interface
By default, the Data Recovery Manager uses a single SSL server certificate for
authentication purposes. However, you can request and install additional SSL
server certificates for the Data Recovery Manager. For example, you can configure
the Data Recovery Manager to use separate server certificates for authenticating to
Netscape Console, the end entity services interface, and the Data Recovery
Manager Agent Services interface. For instructions, see "Configuring the Server to
Use Separate SSL Server Certificates" on page 478.
NOTE

Remote Administration Server Certificate

Similar to the Certificate Manager and Registration Manager, the Data Recovery
Manager too uses a remote administration server certificate. For details, see section
"Remote Administration Server Certificate" on page 443.
