Contributors netapp-nsriram netapp-soumikd

You should configure the CA certificate with Windows host plug-in services to activate the installed digital certificate.

Perform the following steps on the SnapCenter Server and all the plug-in hosts where CA certificates are already deployed.

Steps
  1. Remove the existing certificate binding with SMCore default port 8145, by running the following command:

    > netsh http delete sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:_<SMCore Port>

    For example:

    > netsh http delete sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:8145
  2. Bind the newly installed certificate with the Windows host plug-in services, by running the following commands:

    > $cert = “_<certificate thumbprint>_”
    > $guid = [guid]::NewGuid().ToString("B")
    > netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0: _<SMCore Port>_ certhash=$cert appid="$guid"

    For example:

    > $cert = “a909502dd82ae41433e6f83886b00d4277a32a7b”
    > $guid = [guid]::NewGuid().ToString("B")
    > netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0: _<SMCore Port>_ certhash=$cert appid="$guid"
