About this task

Procedure

  1. Copy the signed certificate from the Certificate Authority to the file system of the WebSphere Deployment Manager.
  2. From the Integrated Solutions Console, click Security > SSL Certificate and key management > > Key stores and certificates > CellDefaultTrustStore > Personal Certificates.
  3. Click Receive from a Certificate authority.
  4. Provide the file name and location for the signed certificate. For example,
