Handling certificates and keystores
Keystore
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) stores the certificates that are trusted into a so-called keystore. By default, the keystore contains certificates that are signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). As a result, the Planon Software Suite is allowed to make a connection to a secured location with such a certificate.
It is possible that certificates need to be added to the keystore. The Suite installer tool provides the possibility to do this, for details see
Updating Cacerts (Suite Installer).
Java Keytool
Java also comes with a tool to handle keystores and certificates and - for example to:
• Import certificates
• Check certificates in the keystore
• Create your own keystore and certificate
• … (and so on).
For more information on how to use this tool, see .
You can find the keytool in the following location:
• Server JDK: …\Server\jdk-*\bin
