2.1 with VRTX

After upgrading to Essentials 2.1, my VRTX chassis now shows up as unknown.  It was showing fine before the upgrade.

Hi,

Thanks for the post. Can you please check whether are you able to connect using Trouble Shooting tool ?

If you are able to connect, then please check whether VRTX certificate is valid (not-expired).

Thanks,

Arun

You might go to the IP address of the chassis (chassis GUI) and the ip of the servers (idrac GUI) and check to see if the certs are expired.  I think you click on the cert details in the GUI.

Thanks,

Rob

This is the cert I get when I go to the website of the VRTX chasis management controller.  I will say everything worked fine until I upgraded to 2.1, not sure if 2.01 did not care that the cert was expired?

Issued to:  cmc-30855

Issued by:  cmc-30855

Valid from 8/3/2001 to 8/1/2011

OME 2.1 updated the WS-MAN communication component. The newer component enforces better security policies and does not communicate with the devices if the certificates are expired.

You can update the certificate as follows:

Open CMC command line console ( SSH or Telnet ) and execute below RACADM command , this will reset the certificate to future date and resolves the issue.

$ racadm sslresetcfg

You will see the following output for the command:

Certificate regenerated successfully and webserver will be restarted
