NAME

       pki-ca-kraconnector - Command-Line Interface for managing CA-KRA connectors.

SYNOPSIS

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector
       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-show
       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-add --input-file <input file> | --host <KRA host> --port <KRA port>
       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-del --host <KRA host> --port <KRA port>

DESCRIPTION

       The   pki-ca-kraconnector  commands  provide  command-line  interfaces  to  manage  CA-KRA
       connectors.  This command should be applied against CAs only.

       When keys are archived, the CA communicates with the KRA through authenticated  persistent
       connections  called Connectors.  Because the CA initiates the communication, the connector
       configuration is performed on the CA only.  A Connector is automatically configured on the
       issuing CA whenever a KRA is set up by pkispawn.

       A  CA  may  have  only  one  KRA  connector.   This connector can be configured to talk to
       multiple KRAs (for high availability) only if the KRAs are clones.

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector
           This command is to list available KRA connector commands.

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-show
           This command is to view the configuration settings for the CA-KRA connector configured
           on the CA.  These details can be redirected to a file, modified as needed, and used as
           the input file for the ca-kraconnector-add command.

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-add --input-file <input_file>
           This command is to configure the CA-KRA connector on the CA subsystem.  The input file
           is an XML document as provided by the ca-kraconnector-show command.

           A CA-KRA connector can only be created from an input file only if a connector does not
           already exist.  If one already exists, it should be removed first.

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-add --host <KRA host> --port <KRA Port>
           This command is to add a host to an existing CA-KRA connector.

       pki [CLI options] ca-kraconnector-del --host <KRA Host> --port <KRA Port>
           This command is to delete a host from the CA-KRA connector on a CA.  If the  last  KRA
           host is removed, the connector configuration is removed from the CA.

OPTIONS

       The CLI options are described in pki(1).

OPERATIONS

       To  view  available  CA-KRA  connector  commands,  type  pki ca-kraconnector. To view each
       command's usage, type  pki ca-kraconnector-<command> --help.

       All CA-KRA connector commands must be executed as the CA administrator.

       To retrieve the CA-KRA connector configuration from the CA:

       pki <CA admin authentication> ca-kraconnector-show

       One of the most common use cases for these commands is to add a KRA clone to  an  existing
       CA-KRA  connector  for high availability.  This can be done using the pki ca-kraconnector-
       add command as shown:

       pki <CA admin authentication> ca-kraconnector-add --host kra2.example.com --port 8443

       To delete a KRA clone from the connector:

       pki <CA admin authentication> ca-kraconnector-del --host kra2.example.com --port 8443
