APAR status
Closed as documentation error.
Error description
The existing documentation on how to configure keystores and truststores correctly mentions that the PKCS12 format can be used. However the documentation incorrectly implies that the proper name for this format is "P12". Attempting to set "P12" as the keystore or truststore type will result in an invalid keystore format exception at runtime. The documentation should be updated to state that the correct type for such keystores is PKCS12, not P12.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of keystores and truststores in IBM App Connect Enterprise 11 Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The Knowledge Center incorrectly refers to PKCS12 keystores as P12 keystores in a number of places, which incorrectly implies that this is a valid keystore type string that can be set in the server.conf.yaml and node.conf.yaml whenever a keystore or truststore type must be specified. This is incorrect, the correct keystore string for such keystores is "PKCS12" not "P12".
Problem conclusion
The KC has been updated to refer to keystores and truststores as PKCS12 keystores and truststores rather than P12 keystores and truststores.
