OpenManage Enterprise SSL CSR and Certificate Upload
I know that this topic has been hashed out many times, but I have yet to find a solution that works for our environments.
The main point that is causing a problem is that our SSL certificates are generated internally. We do not Microsoft CA Certificate Manager. Instead we use Hardware Security Modules (HSMs). The HSMs we use have Linux as their base OS and uses a propriety combination of the vendor's software and openssl.
A CSR is generated according to the OME User's Guide. The CSR is then loaded into the HSM device to generate an
SSL certificate with the internal CA.
Because we use internal CAs and HSMs for CA and certificate management we get the following error:
Error occurred while uploading certificate chain
CSEC9054 - Unable to upload the certificate because Certificate chain validation failed. Invalid certificate chain provided..
Recommended Action
Make sure the certificate is valid and correct and retry the operation.
We are using OpenManage Enterprise 4.5
Is there any way to resolve this within the environment described above? Creating a Windows CA Certificate Manager is not an option and we are required to use our internal CA for issuing SSL certs.
