SSL Certificate with a private Key

OpenSSL, Convert PFX to .key and .crt

Before copy the certificate we need to convert the .PFX into a .Crt and .Key file.
I used the following openssl command;

• openssl pkcs12 -in star_domain_nl.pfx -clcerts -nokeys -out star_domain_nl.crt
• openssl pkcs12 -in star_domain_nl.pfx -out start_domain_nl.key -nodes

Edit the NGINX config file on the JMP server

• Before editing the NGINX config file, copy/paste the .Crt and .Key file created on your linux machine previous step to the folder “C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\JMP\com\XMS\nginx\conf”
• Stop the “JMP” services in the following order

• VMware JMP API Service
• VMware JMP File Share Service
• VMware JMP Platform Services
• Open the “nginx.conf” file in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\JMP\com\XMS\nginx\conf
• Search for the following “ssl_certificate”
• Edit the property “SSL_Certificate” and “ssl_certificate_key” changed it to the new certificate name.

• ssl_certificate ;         start_domain_nl.crt;
• ssl_certificate_key;  start_domain_nl.key;
• restart the services.

Edit the NGINX config file on the App Volumes server

• Before editing the NGINX config file, copy/paste the .Crt and .Key file created on your linux machine previous step to the folder “C:\Program Files (x86)\CloudVolumes\Manager\nginx\conf”
• Stop the “JMP” services in the following order

• App Volumes PowerShell Remoting
• App Volumes Manager
• Open the “nginx.conf” file in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\ CloudVolumes\Manager \nginx\conf
• Search for the following “ssl_certificate”
• Edit the property “SSL_Certificate” and “ssl_certificate_key” changed it to the new certificate name.

• ssl_certificate ;         start_domain_nl.crt;
• ssl_certificate_key;  start_domain_nl.key;
• restart the services.

Add the JMP server in the Horizon Console “horizon certificate is missing”

While adding the JMP server, i received as aspect the following error “This Horizon certificate is missing on the JMP server”

Check your JMP server on https.
Check your App Volumes server on https

• Export the Horizon certificate from one of the connection brokers or grab the certificate from your backup/file location.
• Use openssl for converting the .PFX file to a .pem file
  “openssl pkcs12 -in start_domain_nl.pfx -out horizon.cert.pem -nodes”
• Copy the Horizon.cert.pem file to the following folder on the server “C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\JMP\com”

Make the connection again.
