#1225 [MAN] Information on how to generate pkiArchiveOptions
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 9 years ago by mrniranjan.

In the pki key archival, we have an option to pass --input , where we pass an xml file to archive
a key. Man page of pki-key specifies the below template to be used for pki key archival.

-- clientKeyID - Unique identifier for the secret.
-- dataType - Type of the data to be stored which can be passphrase/symmetricKey/asymmetricKey.
-- keyAlgorithm - Algorithm used to create a symmetric key. (Not required if the dataType is passphrase)
-- keySize - Size used to generate the symmetric key. (Not required if the dataType is passphrase)
-- algorithmOID - Key Algorithm object identifier
-- symmetricAlgorithmParams - Base64 encoded nonce data. Nonce used while encrypting the secret.
-- wrappedPrivateData - Secret encrypted using a session key(A symmetric key) encoded using Base64. This entity contains the secret which is encrypted
using a session key.
-- transWrappedSessionKey - The session key used to encrypt the secret, wrapped using the DRM transport key, and encoded in Base64 format.
-- pkiArchiveOptions - An object of type PKIArchiveOptions provided by the NSS/JSS library to securely transport a secret encoded in Base64 format.

How to generate an object of type "pkiArchiveOptions".

Man page doesn't specify how the pkiArchiveOptions be generated.
