IMPORTANT: The Integrated Administrator does not support these tasks using the
Web-based user interface.
Creating a Certificate Request
To create a security certificate using the CLI, enter:
GENERATE CERTIFICATE REQUEST
This command generates a PKCS#10 certificate request. This certificate request can
be sent to your certification authority (CA) to obtain a PKCS#7 certificate file to use
below.
To create a self-signed security certificate using the CLI, enter:
GENERATE CERTIFICATE SELFSIGNED
This command generates a self-signed PKCS#7 certificate to replace the existing SSL
certificate. This certificate is signed with the current name of the enclosure and will
be valid for 10 years. Users who do not have a certificate authority (CA) may use this
certificate as a replacement.
Downloading a Security Certificate
To download a security certificate using the CLI, enter:
DOWNLOAD CERTIFICATE
This command downloads a CA supplied PKCS#7 file to replace the current security
certificate on the system.
Supported protocols are http, ftp, and tftp. The URL should be formatted:
protocol://host/path/file
