To back up a certifier
1. When you create a new certifier, keep a local copy of the certifier ID file.
2. After you create the certifier, make a copy of the ICL database and keep it in a safe place. Back up the ICL periodically to incorporate any changes you make to the certifier.
3. Make copies of the following (if you use them) and keep in a safe place:
1. From the Admin client, click Configuration.
2. On the Tools pane, choose Certification - Modify Certifier.
3. Select the CA server from the list, and click OK.
4. Select the server that hosts the CA you want to modify, if necessary.
5. Select the certifier to recover by doing one of the following:
If the certifier is still having problems -- for example, configuration documents are corrupted or missing -- replace the ICL database with the back up copy. The location of the ICL database is specified in the certifier document.
