After you install a new release of z/OS®,
you have two versions of the
pkiserv.conf file on
your system:
- The version you used on the previous release of z/OS, which contains the changes you made to
configure PKI Services.
- The sample version shipped with the new release of z/OS, which contains changes that IBM® made to support the new function shipped
in the release. This version does not contain any of your configuration
changes.
You can continue to use the version from the previous release,
but you might not be able to use the new function shipped in the new
release until you merge the configuration changes you made in your
version of the file with the updates that IBM made in the version shipped in the new release.
One approach to merging the files is to compare your version of
pkiserv.conf with
the new sample version, located by default in the
/usr/lpp/pkiserv/samples/ directory.
Update your version to match the changes made to the sample version.
You should be able to cut and paste between the two versions of the
file. To identify the lines that changed, you can refer to the sample
of
pkiserv.conf in
The pkiserv.conf configuration file,
which marks the lines that were changed with a bar in the left margin.
But be aware that the sample shown might not be identical to the sample
shipped with
PKI Services.
