PKDS

You only have to initialize a PKDS the first time you start ICSF on a system.
Note: You must have a valid RSA-MK or ECC-MK loaded to initialize the PKDS.
When you initialize a PKDS, you can copy the disk copy of the PKDS to create other PKDSs for use on the system. You can also use a PKDS on another ICSF system if the system has the same master key value.

For a description of how to use the Master Key Entry panels to enter the master key, see Steps for entering the first master key part. For a description of how to use the TKE workstation to enter the master key, refer to z/OS Cryptographic Services ICSF TKE Workstation User's Guide.
