An SSL certificate cannot be applied for the SVP if the passphrase is set. If the passphrase is set, release the passphrase for the SSL certificate before applying the SSL certificate to the SVP. The following procedure explains how to verify and release the passphrase settings.
- A private key (.key file) has been created.
- OpenSSL must be installed. In this procedure, it is installed in
C:\openssl.
-
Open a command prompt window with administrator permissions.
-
Move the current directory to the folder (for example,
C:\key) where the key file is stored, and run the following command:
CAUTION:
Executing
this command will overwrite the current key file. To prevent loss of the key
file, do one of the following:
- Back up the key file first.
- Use a different key file
input destination and output destination.
When OpenSSL is installed:
C:\key>c:\openssl\bin\openssl
rsa -in key-file-input-destination -out
key-file-output-destination
When using OpenSSL on the SVP:
C:\key>c:\Mapp\OSS\apache\bin\openssl rsa -in
key-file-input-destination -out
key-file-output-destination
Note:
C:\Mapp indicates the installation directory for the
storage management software and SVP software. Specify
C:\Mapp for the installation directory if another
directory is specified for the installation directory.
If Enter pass phrase for
server.key: is displayed, the passphrase is set. Enter the
passphrase. The passphrase in the SSL private key will be released, and the
SSL certificate can be applied to the SVP.
Example (when passphrase is set)
C:\key>c:\openssl\bin\openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.key
Enter pass phrase for server.key: "Enter passphrase"
Writing RSA key
Example (when passphrase is not set)
C:\key>c:\openssl\bin\openssl rsa -in server.key –out server.key
