Importing Service Accounts or Service Key Providers

Note: In earlier ALSB versions, service key providers were called proxy service providers.

If the JAR file was created by ALSB 3.0 or later and contains service accounts or service key providers, you can import these resources along with the user names, passwords, local-user to remote-user mappings, and alias to key-pair bindings that they contain. For each service key provider, ALSB imports the alias to key-pair binding into the PKI credential mapping provider. If this data was encrypted during export, you must supply the password that was used to encrypt the data. If you do not know the password, you can import all other non-encrypted resources.

If you import a service account or service key provider and a corresponding resource of the same name already exists in your domain, the imported resource will overwrite the one already in your domain, even if the one already in your domain has been modified during the current session, unless you specify to preserve security settings during import. See step 5 in Selecting Projects and Resources to Import.
