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
