SECURING

Removing a server from a clustered credential store and setting it up with a single-server credential store

Follow these steps to remove a server from a cluster and clustered credential store and set it up as a non-clustered server with a new credential store:

Procedure

1. From the server you are removing from the cluster, use the following server console command to export the content of the credential store to a new database:


    keymgmt export credstore <database> <local_server>

    where

    • <database> is the name of a database to create to store the data.
    • <local_server> is the Notes hierarchical name of the server.

    For example:

    keymgmt export credstore credstorecopy.nsf hubserver/renovations


2. Rename the credstore.nsf file on the server. For example, rename it to credstore_orig.nsf

3. Change the Server document of the server to remove the server from the cluster. Then, restart the server.

4. Create a named encryption key for the new credential store to be created for the server:


     keymgmt create nek <nekname>

    For example:

     keymgmt create nek credstorekey


5. Use the new key to create a new credential store on the server:

    keymgmt create credstore <nekname>

    For example:

    keymgmt create credstore credstorekey


6. Populate the new credential store with the data from the database that you created in Step 1.

    keymgmt import credstore <database>

    where <database> is the name of the database. For example:

    keymgmt import credstore credstorecopy.nsf
