Updating the User Interface Certificate

  1. Generate a new private key (optional).
  2. Generate a certificate signing request:

    dashboard# openssl req -new -subj '/CN=requestedCommonName' -key /dashboard/ssl/key

  3. Acquire a certificate.

  4. Update the private key on the dashboard virtual machine, if replacing:

    Replace /dashboard/ssl/key with the new private key, PEM encoded.

  5. Update the certificate on the dashboard virtual machine:

    Replace /dashboard/ssl/cert with the new certificate, PEM encoded.

  6. Place any additional CA certs in /dashboard/ssl/chain (e.g., intermediate CA certificates -- root CAs need not be placed here)

  7. Reboot the dashboard virtual machine:

    dashboard# reboot
