Adding or changing a Storage Processor SSL certificate using openssl
Prerequisites
A system with openssl installed is required (easier on Linux including VNX control stations, which have openssl pre-installed, but can also be installed on any system including Windows).
Steps
If this is new setup, create a private key. (Optional to set a passphrase for the key. If set, it is important to remember at later steps. In this example, emcemc is the passphrase used with server.key, specified in passin option.)
Issue a command using the following syntax,
openssl genrsa -des3 -out <server.key> 2048
To request a CSR (C=Country, ST=State, L=Location, O=Orginaisation, CN=CommonName - all are optional except the CN which must match the SP IP):
If the above command reports any errors, corresponding action is required. Whole steps can be tried for SPB (and Control Station). For VNX Control Station, the certificate is stored in
/nas/http/conf/ - the private key without password should be in ssl.key and ssl.crt is the signed certificate.
