  • 1.  how to generate CSR file in sevone?

    Posted Mon September 25, 2023 05:25 AM

    Hi Admin,

    I want to apply an SSL Certificate to SevOne NMS and SDI. The service provider asked me to generate the CSR file. Where can I generate that, please?

    Thanks a lot.

    John

    Hi John

    on page 9 of that guide (section 5) it shows you how to 'install' the certificates. Basically you have to copy the cert files to a specific folder (/etc/nginx/ssl/) and then restart the nginx service (supervisorctl restart nginx).

    Hi Raul Gonzalez,

    Thank you so much for the help. I've already got it done for the NMS, but I need help with SevOne Data Insight. I don't see the configuration file, and I don't see etc/nginx/ or etc/httpd/ in the folder.

    Best Regard and Have a Nice Day .. 
    John-

    Hi John

    I would use the DI admin guide: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/SSUWLY_6.6/main/datainsight/product_operations/SevOne_Data_Insight_Administration_Guide.pdf

    Section 4.8 TLS Certificates, as you can see it works in a different way than in the NMS.

    It looks like there has been an issue during the upgrade, in this situation I would raise a case with support to fix it.
