RE: Error when trying to create a new certificate in the *SYSTEMcertificate store

I ran into this before when copying the IFS file associated with the
certificate stores from one system to another.  Also after a software
upgrade.  Do not remember the releases.  Just changing the password to
the same as it currently is works.

Sorry this took so long to get an answer...This information comes from
the
owner of the Digital Certificate management component....

The "Password not stashed for certificate store" message is most likely
referring to the Local Certificate Authority certificate store password.

Select the Local Certificate Authority (CA) store to work with and open
it.
You will need to know the password for the Local Certificate Authority
store to open it.  If you don't know it, you will have to call service
to
for help or else delete and re-create everything.

Then use the "Change password" function under the Manage Local CA group
of
functions in the left navigation panel to change the password for the
Local
Certificate Authority store.  Changing the password for the store will
stash the password on the iSeries.

You can then change the password back to the original value if you want.

Then open the *SYSTEM store again and create the certificate.
