7.4.2.1. Case I: Security Databases to Security Databases Migration

7.4.2.1. Case I: Security Databases to Security Databases Migration

  1. Remove all the security databases in the new Certificate System which will receive migrated data.

    rm /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/cert8.db
    
    rm /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/key3.db

  2. Copy the certificate and key security databases from the old server to the new server.

    cp old_server_root/alias/cert-old_DRM_instance-cert7.db 
    /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/cert7.db
    
    cp old_server_root/alias/cert-old_DRM_instance-key3.db 
    /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/key3.db
    

  3. Log into the new server as the Certificate System user, and open the Certificate System alias/ directory.

    cd /var/lib/instance_ID/alias/
    

  4. Log in as root, and set the file user and group to the Certificate System user and group.

    su
    
    chown user:group cert7.db
    
    chown user:group key3.db
    

  5. Log out as root. As the Certificate System user, set the file permissions.

    chmod 00600 cert7.db
    
    chmod 00600 key3.db
    

  6. Use the certutil tool to list all of the old Certificate System certificates. In this example, -L lists the certificates, and -X forces them to be read/write.

    certutil -L -X -d . 
    
    Server-Cert cert-old_DRM_instance cu,cu,cu 
    caSigningCert cert-old_DRM_instance CT,c, 
    kraStorageCert cert-old_DRM_instance u,u,u 
    kraTransportCert cert-old_DRM_instance u,u,u

    NOTE

    The certificate database is automatically converted from cert7.db to cert8.db.

  7. Remove the cert7.db database from the alias/ directory.

    rm cert7.db
    

  8. Open the CS.cfg configuration file.

    cd /var/lib/instance_ID/conf/
    
    vi CS.cfg
    

  9. Edit the kra.storageUnit.nickname and kra.transportUnit.nickname attributes to reflect the new DRM information.

    kra.storageUnit.nickname=
     kraStorageCert cert-old_DRM_instance
    kra.transportUnit.nickname=
     kraTransportCert cert-old_DRM_instance

    NOTE

    The caSigningCert is not referenced in the CS.cfg file.

  10. In the same directory, edit the serverCertNick.conf file to contain the old certificate nickname. For example:

    vi serverCertNick.conf
    
    Server-Cert cert-old_DRM_instance
