pp108 : Removing Key and Trust Stores

Removing Key and Trust Stores

This topic describes the procedure to remove key and trust stores from LDAP.

Before you begin this task: For the removing key and trust stores for a service group, you can use Management Console or you can use any external LDAP browser application. For example, JXplorer is an open source LDAP browser.


Key and Trust stores for a service group can be removed manually. After deleting, they will be recreated automatically. You may want to delete the certificate associated with a service group when you suspect that the certificate is compromised or if it is close to expiry. Deleting the certificate will recreate a new certificate.

  1. Connect to the Process Platform Administrative Repository Service (OpenText CARS) using Management Console. The information to connect is different per system and can be found in the wcp.properties file in the Process Platform installation directory.
  2. In Management Console, click cordys > <organization> > soap nodes, and select the service group whose key and trust store you want to delete.
  3. Double-click buskeystore for the service group, and delete its contents.
  4. Double-click soapnodeconfiguration value. For a service group remove the <soapnode_keystore> node tag and the </soapnode_keystore> end tag, and everything in between. For a monitor node remove everything between <monitor_keystore> and </monitor_keystore>.
  5. Save the changes.

After you complete this task: Restart OpenText Process Suite Platform (<instance name>) to create the key and trust store again.
