• Certificates for RMI communication are updated asynchronously. The
process takes about two minutes.
• If the service processor certificate is updated while Hitachi Command Suite
is being set up, the setup operation will fail.
• Updating the SSL certificate might change the system drastically and may
lead to service processor failure. Therefore take sufficient care to consider
the content of the certificate and private key to be set.
• After the certificate update is complete, depending on the environment,
the service processor can take 30 to 60 minutes to restart.
Returning the certificate to default
You can return the certificate that was updated by the procedure in
Updating
a signed certificate on page 219 back to default.
