18.5 Console Certificates in Special Use Case Scenarios

Depending on the situation, you must perform additional steps when you use console certificates.

• Primary-standby environments: If you want to use a console certificate in a primary-standby configuration, then you must install it on the primary and standby servers first, and then pair them.

• Restored data from a backup: If you install a console certificate, perform a backup, and then restore another Oracle Key Vault appliance from that backup, you must re-install the console certificate on the new server before you can use it. The restore process does not copy the console certificate.
