Modify the PATH_TO_CAFILES

HP SMH verifies the revocation status of the trusted certificate used for SSO against the root
certificate, intermediate certificate, and the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) of the certificate. If the
certificate is found to be revoked or if an error is encountered during verification, HP SMH logs a
critical error as: Trusted certificate used for SSO is either revoked or HP
SMH failed to verify it against CRL.

HP SMH loads both root and intermediate CA certificates for only Base64 encoded certificates
with .cer extension from PATH_TO_CAFILES\cacerts\ and loads CRLs for only files with .crl
extension from PATH_TO_CAFILES\cacrls\ to verify the status of the trusted certificate.

To modify the PATH_TO_CAFILES, a CLI option -W|| –cafiles is available in HP SMH. Run the
following command to change the PATH_TO_CAFILES: smhconfig -W|| --cafiles[=]
DIR

where, cafiles is the complete path to the CA files directory.
