PKCS#12 (also known as PKCS12 or PFX) is a binary format for storing a certificate chain and private key in a single, encryptable file. PKCS#12 files are commonly used to import and export certificates and private keys on Windows and macOS computers, and usually have the filename extensions . p12 or . pfx .
It may be located in Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access. Select Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority... Next, select the Saved to disk option and enter your information in the required fields. Then, click Continue.
Click Domains > your domain > SSL/TLS Certificates. You'll see a page like the one shown below. The key icon with the message “Private key part supplied” means there is a matching key on your server. To get it in plain text format, click the name and scroll down the page until you see the key code.
As far as I know PKCS#12 is just a certificate/public/private key store. If you extracted a public key from PKCS#12 file, OpenSSH should be able to use it as long as it was extracted in PEM format.
p12 is an alternate extension for what is generally referred to as a "PFX file", it's the combined format that holds the private key and certificate and is the format most modern signing utilities use.
PKCS #12 files are usually created using OpenSSL, which only supports a single private key from the command line interface. The Java keytool can be used to create multiple "entries" since Java 8, but that may be incompatible with many other systems. As of Java 9, PKCS #12 is the default keystore format.
In case the RSA Key was deleted from the server and there is no way to restore it, the Reissue is the only way out. You will need to have a new pair of CSR code/RSA Key generated. Before installing your reissued certificate make sure that the old one is completely removed from the server.
The path to your private key is listed in your site's virtual host file. Navigate to the server block for your site (by default, it's located in the /var/www directory). Open the configuration file for your site and search for ssl_certificate_key which will show the path to your private key.
