Upload a Custom SSL Certificate and Private Key to Oracle ILOM

Before You Begin

  • Admin (a) role is required to modify the web server properties in Oracle ILOM.

  • Obtain the new (temporary self-signed or certificate authority-signed) HTTPS certitude and private key. For instructions using the OpenSSL toolkit, see Obtain a Custom SSL Certificate and Private Key Using OpenSSL Toolkit.

  • Ensure that you can access the new HTTPS certificate and private key through your network or local file system.

  • When uploading a certificate chain for SSL, ensure that the certificates within the certificate chain are listed in the correct order. For more details, see Certificate Chain Order.

  1. I the Oracle ILOM web interface, click ILOM Administration -> Management Access -> SSL Certificate.
  2. In the SSL server page, perform the following;
    1. Click the Load Certificate button to upload the Custom Certificate file that is designated in the File Transfer Method properties.
    2. Click the Load Custom Private Key button to upload the Custom Private Key file that is designated in the File Transfer Method properties.
    3. Click Save to apply the changes.
  3. If a Certification Authority (CA) SSL Certificate and private key were uploaded to Oracle ILOM, verify that the Java client is properly configured to validate the custom CA SSL certificate that is currently configured in Oracle ILOM. For instructions, see the following procedure Validate Custom CA SSL Certificate Configuration in Java Client.
