hi
I have created a keystore (.kdb) extension using gsk8 (or rather runmqakm). Now I just found out that my applications use JKS. I tried to search around and found some information on gsk6 and that it supports the JKS format. However now, gsk8 doesn't support JKS. Only PKCS12 and p12 ( there is also cms/kdb).

How can I convert by kdb keystore to JKS format?

thanks

Have you tried using runmqckm for the conversion?
If you need to stay FIPS compliant, convert to PKCS12 and then from PKCS12 to JKS using a FIPS compliant tool. (Like keytool if your implementation of Java JSSE is FIPS compliant.) Or use the PKCS12 repository directly in Java...

Have fun

Thanks for replying. I have not tried runmqckm before. but yes, you are right, it does support jks. I tried just now and a jks file was created. So i just pass this jks file to them to input to their java program and it should work right?

If that's the case, I really should use runmqckm instead of runmqakm. Actually what is the real difference between these 2 commands?
thanks again.
