Owsm policy step verify certificate

Question

We try to use the OWSM for client authentication using "verify certificate". for what i understand of it i have to send along the public certificate with my request and that certificate should be in the trusted store. Can this store be the same store as the wallet the http server is already using.
when i look for the details of the verify certificate step i see that there are a few prerequisites
Prerequisite Steps      Verify Signature, Decrypt and Verify, or if the transport security uses SSL.
i use a https://<server>/gateway/services/SID0003006?wsdl as endpoint from within the webserviceproxy and added the following before setting the endpoint in de proxy.
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore", "/home/maqish/keystore");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType", "JKS");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword", "changeit");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "/home/maqish/keystore");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType", "JKS");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "changeit");
I have added the server certificate in my trusted keystore and the public key is send to the server to be added as a trusted certificate.
using verify certificate it should be possible to verify that a request is from a trusted source. but this does not seem to work very well. or else there could be some other problem in my thoughts.
anyone who tried the same? or has ever used the policy step verify certificate?
