Use keytool to delete certificates from AWS CloudHSM key store - AWS CloudHSM

The following command shows an example of how to delete a AWS CloudHSM certificate from a Java keytool key store.

Linux
$ keytool -delete -alias mydomain \
	-keystore example_keystore.store \
	-storetype CLOUDHSM \
	-J-classpath '-J/opt/cloudhsm/java/*'
Windows
PS C:\> keytool -delete -alias mydomain `
	-keystore example_keystore.store `
	-storetype CLOUDHSM `
	-J-classpath '-J"C:\Program Files\Amazon\CloudHSM\java\*"'
anchoranchor
$ keytool -delete -alias mydomain \
	-keystore example_keystore.store \
	-storetype CLOUDHSM \
	-J-classpath '-J/opt/cloudhsm/java/*'

If you connect multiple client instances to your AWS CloudHSM cluster, deleting a certificate on one client instance’s key store won't automatically remove the certificate from other client instances. You must delete the certificate on each client instance.
