Installing a Standalone Data Recovery Manager
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 321.
Tokens
You choose either the
token (if you plan to use the internal/software
internal
token) or an external token to store the signing certificate and key pair and the SSL
signing certificate and key pair.
If you are using an external token, you will need to install it before you run the
Installation Wizard. In the wizard, you can select from a list of already installed
and available tokens. For example,
. For installation instructions, see
SmartCard
"External Token" on page 316.
Internal Database
Each subsystem uses an internal database to store information (such as certificates
and certificate requests) used by the subsystem you will be installing in this CMS
instance. By default, a separate internal database is created for each subsystem you
configure. You can choose to use the same internal database for more than one
subsystem by specifying this when running the installation wizard to configure
that subsystem. You should carefully consider whether you want to store this
information in a separate internal database for each subsystem or use one internal
database for all subsystems installed on the host.
It's recommended that you do not use this Directory Server instance for any other
purposes; the directory schema will be configured for storing CMS data.
Key Type and Length
If you wish, you can import the signing key and certificate used in a previous
version of CMS installation rather than generating a new signing key pair. For
information on how to do this, check the migration information.
