Configuring SSL certificates and host names

Configure the Self Service Portal's (SSP) SSL certificate in cases where an incorrect default host name or DNS name is provided during the installation process of the SSP.

Before you begin

You must stop the IBM Endpoint Manager for Mobile Devices service (BESiOSServer.exe) to run the following configuration commands.

Procedure

  1. To change the host name of the SSP and create new SSL certificates to match this host name, run the following command:
    ssp.bat recreate_certs <hostname>
  2. If you are using officially signed SSL certificates, ensure that the following files are named correctly:
    • The SSL private key must be named as ssl_key.pem.
    • The certificate must be named as ssl_cert.pem.
    • If you have an intermediate certificate bundle, ensure that it is named as ssl_bundle.pem.
  3. Run the following command:
    ssp.bat recreate_keystore
