NAME
       imqkeytool - generate a self-signed certificate for secure communication

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/imqkeytool [-broker] [-servlet keystore_location]

       /usr/bin/imqkeytool -h

DESCRIPTION
       The  imqkeytool	utility  generates a self-signed certificate for secure communication. The certificate can be used by a broker instance to
       establish a secure connection with a client, or by a Message Queue-supplied HTTPS servlet to establish a secure connection  with  a  broker
       instance.  An HTTPS servlet is an SSL-enabled varient of the HyperText Transfer Protocol that establishes a secure connection with a broker
       instance.

       Without an option, imqkeytool generates a self-signed certificate for a broker instance.

       imqkeytool uses command line options to specify whether the certificate is used by a broker instance or by a servlet.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -broker			     Generate a self-signed certificate for the broker and places it in the Message  Queue  keystore.  All  broker
				     instances running on a system must use the same certificate.

       -h			     Display usage help. Do not execute anything else on the command line.

       -servlet keystore_location    Generate a self-signed certificate for an HTTPS servlet and places it in keystore_location.

				     keystore_location	refers	to the location of the keystore. You should move this keystore to a location where
				     it is accessible and readable by the Message Queue HTTPS servlet to establish a secure connection with a bro-
				     ker.
