Creating the *SYSTEM Store

The *SYSTEM Store is a place where SSL Certificates and Certificate Autorities (CAs) are stored for use by the system. 

When you create the *SYSTEM store by default a few of the more common CAs are automatically added to the store. 

To create the *SYSTEM store follow the following instructions:

1. Work with the Digital Certificate Manager.

2. From the selection on the left, select the "Create New Certificate Store" option.

1. Make sure that *SYSTEM is selected and click on the Continue button.

1. Make sure "No - Do not create a certificate in the certificate store" is selected and click on the Continue button.

1. Enter a password and confirm that password and select the Continue button.  Be sure to keep track of this password.

1. You should be presented with a screen that says the certificate store has been created. 
   
   Just to make sure the authorities to the keyring files are set you should issue the following commands:
   CHGAUT OBJ('/QIBM/UserData/ICSS/Cert/Server') USER(*PUBLIC) DTAAUT(*RX)
   CHGAUT OBJ('/QIBM/UserData/ICSS/Cert/Server/*') USER(*PUBLIC) DTAAUT(*R)

2. You're all done!
