Install the server certificate that is used by SnapDrive for UNIX in the
sdu-daemoncertificate-path=/opt/NetApp/snapdrive/snapdrive.pem
location if you are using a secure connection with the storage system and daemon service.The certificate path is defined in the
sdu-daemoncertificate-path
configuration variable in thesnapdrive.conf
file. -
Set
use-https-to-sdu-daemon=on
in thesnapdrive.conf
file to use HTTPS for a secure connection with the storage system and daemon service.SnapDrive 5.0 for UNIX and later versions support HTTPS for daemon communication. By default, this optional parameter is disabled. -
Restart the SnapDrive daemon service:
snapdrived start
You must restart the SnapDrive daemon every time you manually change the configuration file.
