How to replace productive SSL PSE in AS ABAP

CA asks you to create new key pair, but old key is in productive use, if you replace it directly, it will impact productive usage.

You can follow the steps in note 1178155 to generate a new key pair without removing the old key pair.

Here are detailed steps:

[Link] a new SSL Server Identity.

In transaction STRUST, choose the menu option "Environment => SSL Server Identities"

Then, choose "New Entries". Create an entry using the field values SSL ID = 'SRVTMP' and Description = 'Temporary SSL Server
PSE'. Set the flag "Active" (if the flag is available).

Server PSE, you can copy name of SSL Server PSE and paste it.

3. Copy certificate list in the old PSE to the temporary PSE.

If the currently active SSL Server PSE contains some certificates in its certificate list, you must transfer these certificates from the
old PSE's certificate list into the certificate list of the new temporary PSE.
To do this, select the active SSL Server PSE and double click the certificate you want to transfer. It will appear in the "Certificate"
area of transaction STRUST. Next, select the temporary PSE with a double-click. The PSE appears in the upper section of the
screen. The certificate to transfer remains stored in the certificate area, so you can now simply add it to the temporary PSE's
certificate list by choosing "Add to Certificate List".

Open the old SSL PSE and double click certificate in "Certificate List":

Repeat these steps for each certificate to be transferred to the new PSE's certificate list.

[Link] the temporary SSL Server PSE certified by CA.

The newly created temporary SSL Server PSE is still self-signed. You can now proceed with creating a certificate request from your
newly created temporary SSL PSE and send this certificate request to the CA. Choose "Edit ==> Create Certificate Request" or the
following button:

Upon receipt of your CA signed certificate, make sure you select the right PSE for import. Import the CA's certificate response by
using the menu function "Edit ==> Import Certificate Response", or by clicking the green arrow button directly under the tag "Own
Certif.".
