Salah,
There is no "archive" function in ICSF. The keys stored in the CKDS (and
PKDS) as well, are stored based upon the name you've given the key. If
you've created your key with let's say the name "FRED", and you replace
that key, the old key is gone - forever. If you need to save multiple
values, then you will need to give each key a unique name.

ICSF Question
Hello List,
This is a question related to ICSF Key generation/update process:
what I'm trying to do is Generate a new key using the CSNBKGN call and
then
update the Today-instant-issue-key, using the CSNBKRW, call with the newly
generated key.
My question is – what does ICSF do with old keys? Are they archived on
the
CKDS somehow? Some of the error messages seems to give that impression
(see reason codes x’2710’, x’2711’ for a return code of 0; see reason code
x’2714’ for a return code of 8).
Being that we will be updating that key every business day, that will mean
260
key updates a year for this one key alone. That’s a lot of records on the
CKDS to archive if this occurs. I’m not sure what the repercussions are
for
this, if anything at all.
Thanks
