With AIX-LPAR and all, your's must be a very big and so procedure oriented organisation. So you really have two approaches. One described earlier. ie. Do but dont tell anyone, take care etc.
The other : talk about it to end users, see how you can repeat it again for their benefit. ie. see to it that you become the end users' goto person for problem resolution. Then with your favourite user, try to wangle a seat in a meeting with the authorised vendor and so on. spread your wings man (or woman).
For your information, a recent article I read says that in future more and more IT persons will be away from core IT departments and get embedded in end user departments as co-ordinators, implementors and so on. As and when this happens in your organisation (ie downsizing, out sourcing) you can make the jump.

NAME
eurephiadm-certs - Certificate management for eurephia
DESCRIPTION
Available modes for the certificate command are:
-A | --add
Register a new certificate
-D | --delete
Delete a registered certificate
-l | --list
List all registered certificates
-h | --help <mode>
Help about a specific mode
LIST MODE
The list mode will list all registered certificates. It accepts one parameter:
-S | --sort <sort key>
Decide the sort order of the certificate list
Available sort keys are:
certid
Numeric certificate ID
depth
Certificate depth
digest
Certificate SHA1 digest
cname
Certificate Common Name field
org
Certificate organisation field
email
Certificate e-mail address field
registered
When the certificate was registered in eurephia.
ADD MODE
The add mode will register a new certificate.
-d | --depth
Certificate depth, required.
-D | --digest
SHA1 fingerprint/digest of the new certificate
-C | --common-name
Common name (CN) field of the certificate
-O | --organisation
Organisation (O) field of the certificate
-E | --email
e-mail address (emailAddress) of the certificate
Usually the certificate depth value needs to be 0, if you are registering user account certificates. CA certificates usually have a value
bigger than 0.
If you have the certificate file available, you can use the following options to retrieve the needed information directly from a certifi-
cate file.
-f | --certfile
File name of the certificate file.
-p | --pkcs12
If the file is in PKCS#12 format.
The default format is PEM format, unless --pkcs12 is given. These two options cannot be used together with -D, -C, -O or -E. But the cer-
tificate depth must be given to indicate the certificate depth.
DELETE MODE
The delete mode will remove a certificate from the certificate database.
-i | --certid
Indicates a unique certificate ID
-d | --digest
A unique SHA1 fingerprint/digest value
-C | --common-name
Common Name (CN) field of a certificate
-O | --organisation
Organisation (O) field of a certificate
-E | --email
e-mail address (emailAddress) of a certificate
You can use any of these parameters to indicate a search criteria for the certificate (or certificates) you want to delete. You will be
provided with a list over certificates which matches your search criteria and you will need to approve the deletion of the matching cer-
tificate(s).
