Can I export the server keys for safe external storage?

0

Yes. If the server keys are PBE encrypted, then before they are exported, they will be decrypted and re-encrypted with the default key. This allows them to be imported to the same or another server at a later date, independent of the local server PBE key. If the server keys are encrypted with the default key, then no preprocessing is done before they are exported. When they are imported into a server, if the server is configured for PBE keys, the keys will be decrypted and then re-encrypted with the local server’s PBE key, if that server is configured for PBE key encryption.
