After importing the trusted certificate chain, you import a management (signed) certificate file for each controller in the storage array.

Before you begin

  • You must be logged in with a user profile that includes Security admin permissions. Otherwise, certificate functions do not appear.

  • The trusted certificates have been imported.

  • The CA returned a management certificate file for each controller.

  • The management certificate file(s) are available on your local system.

About this task

This task describes how to upload the management certificate files for controller authentication.

Steps

  1. Select Settings › Certificates.

  2. From the Array Management tab, select Import.

    A dialog box opens for importing the certificate file(s).

  3. Click Browse to select the file for controller A. If there are two controllers, click the second Browse button to select the file for controller B.

    The file names are displayed in the dialog box.
