Remember that the RSA is associated with the COOP protocol
(To ensure KS redudancy). No need to export RSAs to GMs.

So if you don't export RSA keys (best practice: Prim KS -> Sec KSs),
while the GMs could be OK, at least initially,
the KSs can't peer properly nor sync rekey parameters with each other.
So coop will break, so also the KS election.
Therefore the first indication to look for,
is multiple primary KSs (with peer status unknown).

Hi GS,

Is it mandatory to import keys in all COOP KSs for secondary KS to work
properly? I am doing INE VOL 1 and according to it this is a required step
to have COOP KSs. But looking at DOC CD I did not find any command in
example to import keys in COOP KSs. Also I could make it work in my lab with
out importing the key in COOP KS. If my verification is wrong I may be
missing the concept. In my case I generated rsa exportable keys in both
Primary KS and COOP Ks and configured GM to use both the KS.

Thanks for the help,

Ajay
