Installing PKI Services

Your MVS™ programmer uses SMP/E to install PKI Services into a file system directory. By default, PKI Services is installed in the /usr/lpp/pkiserv directory but the MVS programmer can determine whether to change the default for this and other directories. Before your team begins installing and configuring prerequisite products and setting up PKI Services, you will need to know which file system directories were used so you can customize the install process.

Table 1 shows each file system variable with its description and default value. Your MVS programmer should review the rightmost column of this table, crossing out any defaults that have changed and recording the correct directory names.

Table 1. File system directory variables
Variable name	Description	Default value or customized value
`variables-dir`	The file system directory where PKI Services creates working files.	/var/pkiserv
`install-dir`	The file system directory where PKI Services is installed.	/usr/lpp/pkiserv
`runtime-dir`	The file system directory where PKI Services looks for configuration files.	/etc/pkiserv
