Tell CA Quit	Stops CA process.
Tell CA Stat	Displays summary information for the certifiers using the CA process; this includes the certifier's number, its hierarchical name, certifier type (Notes® or Internet), whether it is active, and name of the ICL database.
Tell CA Show Queue Certifier Number	Display a list of pending certificate requests, revocation requests, and configuration modification requests for a specific certifier, using its number from the results of the tell ca statuscommand. You can also use an asterisk (*) to show this information for all certifiers that are using the CA process.
Tell Ca Activate Certifier Number Password	Activate a certifier if the certifier is created with Require password to activate certifier, or use this for any certifier that has been deactivated. Activation is enabled during CA setup and creation. Activate a specific certifier by entering its number from the results of the tell ca status command. Or you can actually unlock all server ID/password-protected certifiers at one time with this command, if you specify `*` for the certifier number. The CA process then prompts you for the password for each certifier.
Tell CA Deactivate Certifier Number	Deactivate a certifier. You will need to activate it again in order for it to process any request. Use `*` to deactivate everything, or deactivate a specific certifier by entering its number from the results of the tell ca status command.
Tell CA Lock Idfile	Lock all certifiers that were set up with a lock ID, as specified during CA setup.
Tell CA Unlock Idfile Password	Unlock all certifiers using the ID and password that comprise the lock ID. The lock ID is specified during CA setup.
