NAME
pkidaemon - provides status management of PKI instances
SYNOPSIS
pkidaemon {start|status} [instance-name]
- Note: Although this tool currently resides in the /usr/bin directory, proper use of it requires it to be run with super user privileges.

DESCRIPTION
The pkidaemon command with the 'status' argument provides a way to display the status of all existing PKI instances on a machine. Optionally, an individual PKI instance may be specified by using an optional [instance-name].
The pkidaemon 'start' argument is currently only used internally by the systemctl scripts.
OPTIONS
As stated above, the only optional argument to
pkidaemon is
[instance-name]. If a valid instance name is specified, only the status of that instance will be displayed.
EXAMPLES
For the following examples, two instances were installed. The first contained a CA, KRA, OCSP, TKS and TPS in a shared PKI instance named 'pki-tomcat', while the second simply contained a CA running on different ports and named 'pki-tomcat-2'.
For the OCSP 'Unsecure URL' and the OCSP 'Secure EE URL' which both specify a static string of '<ocsp request blob>', the intention is for the user to replace this static string with an actual OCSP request blob relevant to their particular deployment.
Listing the status of all local PKI instances on this machine:
# pkidaemon status
REPORT STATUS OF 'tomcat' INSTANCE(S):
Status for pki-tomcat: pki-tomcat is running ..
