- Complete a CA certificate signing request (CSR) for the controllers
To receive a certificate authority (CA) certificate for the storage array's controllers, you must first generate a certificate signing request (CSR) file for each controller in the storage array. - Import trusted certificates for controllers
After receiving digital certificates from a certificate authority (CA), you can import the certificate chain (intermediate and root) for the controllers. - Import a management certificate for controllers
After importing the trusted certificate chain, you import a management (signed) certificate file for each controller in the storage array. - View imported certificate information
From the Certificates page, you can view the certificate type, issuing authority, and the valid date range of certificates you previously imported. - Delete trusted certificates
You can delete any of the user-imported certificates. - Reset management certificates
You can revert the management certificates on the storage array back to the factory self-signed state. - Complete CA certificate signing request (CSR) for a key server
To receive a certificate authority (CA) certificate for a key management server, you must first generate a certificate signing request (CSR) file. - Import key management server certificates
For external key management, you import certificates for authentication between the storage array and the key management server so the two entities can trust each other. There are two types of certificates: the client certificate validates the controllers, while the key management server certificate validates the server. - Export key management server certificates
You can save a certificate for a key management server to your local machine. - Enable certificate revocation checking
You can enable automatic checks for revoked certificates, so that an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) server blocks users from making non-secure connections. Automatic revocation checking is helpful in cases where the Certificate Authority (CA) improperly issued a certificate or if a private key is compromised.
