Description
sun/security/mscapi/nonUniqueAliases/NonUniqueAliases.java has '@ignore Uses certutil.exe that isn't guaranteed to be installed' 

canonically, @ignore should be followed by the id of the bug which describes the problem and will be used to eventually fix it.

the more appropriate solutions for a situation when tests have special requirements: 
 - using custom login in tests to check that certutil exists and throw jtreg.SkippedException otherwise;
 - using '/manual' jtreg option, which will exclude tests from automated runs, yet will still be possible for "manual" execution by direct jtreg invocation
