If necessary, you can import certificates for the storage arrays so they can authenticate with the system hosting SANtricity Unified Manager. Certificates can be signed by a certificate authority (CA) or can be self-signed.
Before you begin
- You must be logged in with a user profile that includes Security admin permissions. Otherwise, certificate functions do not appear.
- If you are importing trusted certificates, the certificates must be imported for the storage array controllers using SANtricity System Manager.
Procedure
- Select Certificate Management.
- Select the Trusted tab.
This page shows all certificates reported for the storage arrays.
- Select either to import a CA certificate or to import a self-signed certificate.
To limit the view, you can use the Show certificates that are... filtering field or you can sort the certificate rows by clicking one of the column heads.
- In the dialog box, select the certificate and then click Import.
The certificate is uploaded and validated.
