Manage the application server certificate configuration

Use the Application Server SSL Certificate page to configure the application server SSL certificate in the IBM Security Identity Manager virtual appliance. The certificate update is for the primary node and each member node.

  1. From the top-level menu of the Appliance Dashboard, click Configure > Advanced Configuration > Application Server Certificate Management to display the Application Server SSL Certificate page. The Application Server SSL Certificate page displays the certificate details.

  2. Click Update to open the Upload Keystore window. To update the application server SSL certificate, ensure that the keystore contains only one self-signed certificate.

    If we have more than one self-signed certificate in the keystore and attempt to update the Application Server SSL Certificate, an error message is displayed.

  3. Click Browse to search and select the certificate to import. The File field is populated with the certificate name. For example, appserver.jks.

  4. Enter the password for the certificate in the Keystore Password field.

  5. From the Keystore Type list, select a type that specifies the keystore.
    • CMSKS
    • JCEKS
    • JKS
    • PKCS11
    • PKCS12

  6. Click Save Configuration. The application server SSL certificate configuration takes some time. Do not refresh or close the page. Wait for the configuration process to complete.
