Copying the truststore file to endpoints manually

You must copy the truststore file to each endpoint you plan to use.

Note: If you have a data virtualization manager such as PowerVC, you can copy the truststore file to a new endpoint by creating an image that contains both thePowerSC GUI agent and the truststore file. See Copying the truststore file to endpoints using a virtualization manager.
  1. Copy the endpoint truststore /etc/security/powersc/uiServer/endpointTruststore.jks file to the /etc/security/powersc/uiAgent/endpointTruststore.jks file on each endpoint. For example, if you want to use scp, run the following command:
    # scp endpointTruststore.jks user@endpoint-host-name:
                           /etc/security/powersc/uiAgent
  2. To restart the endpoint agents after installing the security certificate, run one of the following commands based on the operating system of the endpoint:
    • For AIX® endpoints:
      stopsrc -s pscuiagent
      startsrc -s pscuiagent
    • For Linux® endpoints:
      systemctl stop powersc-uiAgent.service
      systemctl start powersc-uiAgent.service
    • For IBM® i endpoints:
      ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*UIAGENT)
      STRTCPSVR SERVER(*UIAGENT)
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each existing endpoint and for every new endpoint (if you do not have a data virtualization manager).
