/opt/fedora-ds/alias should have two files for your server - 
slapd-myserver-key3.db and slapd-myserver-cert8.db.  When you use 
certutil or it's related tools, there are two command line arguments 
which are really key - -P and -d.  The argument for -P should be 
"slapd-myserver-".  Notice the "-" at the end.  If you do not specify 
this "-" at the end, you will not get your desired results.  The 
argument for -d should always be /opt/fedora-ds/alias - this directory 
is (for historical reasons) the directory in to which all of the crypto 
files go.
