Hi Naga,

keytool is part of standard java distribution. It might not be in your path therefore you can run it without specifying the path.

It should be in this parth:

%JAVA_HOME%\bin

This is an example:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\keytool.exe

To use it:

keytool-Key and Certificate Management Tool
