NAME

       pkidestroy - Removes a subsystem from an instance of Certificate Server.

SYNOPSIS

       pkidestroy  -s  <subsystem>  -i  <instance> [-u <secutiry domain username>] [-W <security domain password
       file>] [-h] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       Removes a subsystem from an instance of Certificate Server.  This utility removes any of  the  Java-based
       Certificate Server subsystems (CA, KRA, OCSP, and TKS).

       An  instance  can  contain  multiple  subsystems,  although  it  may  contain at most one of each type of
       subsystem.  So, for example, an instance could contain CA and KRA subsystems,  but not two CA subsystems.
       If pkidestroy is invoked on  the  last  subsystem  in  the  instance,  then  that  instance  is  removed.
       Typically,  as subsystems need to contact the CA to update the security domain, the CA instance should be
       the last instance to be removed.

OPTIONS

       -s <subsystem>
              Specifies the subsystem to be removed, where <subsystem> is CA, KRA, OCSP, or TKS. If this  option
              is not specified, pkidestroy will prompt for its value.

       -i <instance>
              Specifies  the  name  of the instance from which the subsystem should be removed.  The instance is
              located at /var/log/pki/<instance>. If this option is not specified, pkidestroy  will  prompt  for
              its value.

       -u <security domain username>
              Specifies the username of the security domain of the subsystem. This is an optional parameter.

       -W <security domain password file>
              Specifies  the  file  containing  the password of the security domain of the subsystem. This is an
              optional parameter.

       -h, --help
              Prints additional help information.

       -v     Displays verbose information about the installation.  This flag can be provided multiple times  to
              increase verbosity.  See pkidestroy -h for details.
