Import a Data Share Manager private key into an existing database
There is only one active private key in the system that is used by Teamcenter. To import a private data share key to an already installed database, use the install_datasharekeys utility. This utility is initially called by the Teamcenter installation process to install the predefined private key. To use the same key for more than one database (for example, after installing test environments), perform the following steps: Procedure Export the private key from a database that already uses it (for example, the database that generated it): Copy install_datasharekeys -u=username p=password -f=exp_pvtkey This generates the private_keypairID.pem file. Caution Always keep the private key in a safe and secure place, inaccessible to unauthorized parties, preferably away from the public key files. Import (seed) the private key into each of the other already-installed databases: Copy install_datasharekeys -u=username -p=password -f=seed -f=private_keypairID.pem private_keypairID.pem is the private key file exported from the database in step 1. Caution Always keep the private key in a safe and secure place, inaccessible to unauthorized parties, preferably away from the public key files. Export the corresponding public key for distribution to the clients from any database that already has the private key installed (after step 1 or 2): Copy install_datasharekeys -u=username -p=password -f=exp_pubkey This generates the public_keypairID.pem and public_keypairID.x509 public key files. The public_keypairID.x509 public key file can be freely distributed to Data Share Manager clients.
