The IIS Certificate has expired and the Vulnerability and Patch
Management Pack connection must be reconfigured to use an
HTTP connection
HP recommends using a secure HTTPS connection between the HP SIM server and the VPM server,
when these components are installed on separate servers. However, if you currently have an HTTPS
connection that must be reconfigured to HTTP:
1. Remove the SSL certificate from IIS.
2. Change the IIS configuration to accept both HTTP and HTTPS connections:
a. Open Internet Information Services Manager.
b. Locate STATScanner under Default Web Site on the local computer.
c. Right-click STATScanner, and select Properties.
d. Click the Directory Security tab.
e. Click Edit in the Secure Communications field.
