Regenerating the MNMP SSL certificate
The Regenerate action creates a new private key and self-signed certificate. Note that when you regenerate the MNMP certificate, the NetProfiler will not be accessible to other Alluvio appliances until you have installed the certificate in their Trusted Certificates section.
-
Go to the Administration > Appliance Security > Encryption Key Management page Local Credentials tab.
-
In the row for the MNMP SSL Certificate, choose Regenerate Key/Cert from the Actions menu.
This generates a new certificate and a new private key. The certificate contains the new public key.
- Choose either Download Certificate or View Certificate from the Actions menu.
-
-
If you choose Download Certificate, follow the prompts to specify a location where the certificate file can be downloaded. You can then copy the certificate from the file.
-
If you choose View Certificate, copy the certificate from the window.
-
-
On each Alluvio appliance that communicates with this appliance, go to the Administration > Appliance Security > Encryption Key Management page Trusted Certificates tab.
-
Click Add New Certificate to open a window into which you can paste the new NetProfiler MNMP certificate.
-
Paste the new certificate into the Key/Cert field.
-
Optionally, enter a description to be displayed in the Trusted Certificates list. Leave it blank if you want to use the certificate’s subject. This can be changed later using the Change Entry action.
-
Click OK and confirm that the certificate is listed on the Trusted Certificates tab. The appliance will reestablish contact with the NetProfiler automatically within a few minutes.
