X.509 Certificate Path
Absolute path to the location of the X.509 certificate.
As shown in the following example, you can use the USER_INSTALL_ROOT variable as part of the path name: {USER_INSTALL_ROOT}/etc/ws-security/samples/intca2.cer. This X.509 certificate path is not for production use. Obtain your own X.509 from a certificate authority before putting the application server environment into production.
We can configure the USER_INSTALL_ROOT variable in the admin console by clicking Environment > WebSphere Variables.
