IC78288: TYPO IN STEP 23 OF "ENABLING SECURE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN TSPC AND THE LDAP REPOSITORY"

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• The TSPC InfoCenter site contains a typo in step 23 of the
  following procedure:
  http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v4r1/index.jsp
  ?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.tpc_V42.doc%2Ffqz0_t_config_ssl.html
  Currently the step has unbalanced "<>" characters and is missing
  them in another place.  As currently printed this leads to
  syntax errors when issued against a TSPC server:
  keytool -import -keystore C:\Tivoli Storage Productivity Center
  install
  directory\eWAS\profiles\CSM\config\cells\DefaultNode\nodes\Defau
  ltNode
  \trust.p12 -storetype pkcs12 -storepass WebAS -file <C:\Tivoli
  Storage Productivity Center install
  directory\profiles\TIPProfile\
  etc\LDAP repository certificate file name
  This needs to be updated, as follows:
  keytool -import -keystore <C:\Tivoli Storage Productivity Center
  install
  directory>\eWAS\profiles\CSM\config\cells\DefaultNode\nodes\Defa
  ultNode
  \trust.p12 -storetype pkcs12 -storepass WebAS -file <C:\Tivoli
  Storage Productivity Center install
  directory>\profiles\TIPProfile\etc\<LDAP repository certificate
  file name>
  The "<>" characters denote abstract paths that are subject to be
  different based on installation options chosen
