Chapter 1. About This Guidance Document
This guide contains documentation about understanding, installing, and configuring Red Hat Certificate System. It is structured into the following parts:
Note
Administrators not familiar with Red Hat Certificate System are strongly encouraged to read Part I, “Introduction to Red Hat Certificate System and Deployment Planning” for a good understanding of RHCS and plan ahead accordingly before following Part II for installation.
Chapter 2, Introduction to Red Hat Certificate System provides a topical overview of several different parts of Certificate System. Chapter 4, Supported Platforms lists various components and their supported version by Red Hat. Chapter 5, Planning the Certificate System contains helpful information for planning a Red Hat Certificate System installation.
Refer to Chapter 3, Allowed Standards and Protocols for a list of compliant and supported standards and protocols.
To install Red Hat Certificate System in a compliant manner, follow the instructions in Part II, “Installing Red Hat Certificate System”. Begin with Chapter 6, Prerequisites and Preparation for Installation to prepare the base operating system. Follow Section 7.3, “Installing Using the
pkispawn Utility”. Afterwards, follow the required post-installation steps in Section 7.4, “Post-installation Tasks” to ensure the complete installation is compliant. This last section links you to relevant parts of the guide which explains the steps to perform for full compliance.
Important
If installation fails during the
pkispawn phase (discussed in Section 7.3, “Installing Using the pkispawn Utility”), it is suggested to check your configuration carefully for mistakes and refer to the error logs. Prior to re-running the pkispawn utility to retry the installation, it is necessary to fully remove the old instance. Refer to Chapter 16, Removing a Subsystem for information about removing subsystems.
For a more complete list of configuration options which are supported and compliant, refer to Part III, “Configuring Certificate System”. This part can only be followed after the installation is complete.
