Stashing the certificate store password

 

Note that if you have specified that the system certificate store is to be used (by changing the value of the queue manager's SSLKEYR attribute to *SYSTEM) you do not need to follow the steps in this section.

When you have created the certificate store using DCM, use the following commands to stash the password:

STRMQM MQMNAME('queue manager name')

CHGMQM MQMNAME('queue manager name') SSLKEYRPWD('password')

The password must be entered as a literal (in single quotes) exactly as you entered it in 6 of Creating a new certificate store (it is case sensitive).

If you are not using the default system certificate store, and you do not stash the password, attempts to start SSL channels fail because they cannot obtain the password required to access the certificate store.
