- VMWARE 6.0 CONNECTION SERVERS AND INSTALL MS CERTS UPDATE
I want to point out if you have multiple PSCs and vCenters you will need to do this for ALL of them! You also have to run this from the PSC server. Below is the example from the article of the scripts you will run.
VMWARE 6.0 CONNECTION SERVERS AND INSTALL MS CERTS HOW TO
If you follow the instructions (very carefully I might add) it gives you instructions how to view what the current certificate that the MOB has listed for your PSCs and your vCenters, how to download a copy of those Certs to get a Thumbprint, how to download your current Certificates, and finally how to use the ls_update_certs.py * which you have to install a new one from the KB article* script to modify what is in the MOB pages. If they get changed, for some reason VMware does not change them properly in the MOB *or where ever the info is stored* and it then falls on you the Admin to be clever enough to know this is the issue. The ROOT of the problem is the certificates that are associated with the PSC and the vCenter servers. VMware has updated KB2121701 so many times over the last couple of months that they must really be sick of that page.

I say most because I reset my PSC and vCenter Certs to the same thing and now I have to call support to see if I can change this! *Yes, I am an idiot* I will update again as I get this last part figured out. The below notes do work for fixing the MOB just make sure you know exactly what your syntax is supposed to be and know which Certificates you are replacing.īack to the drawing board for going through all of this again (time has finally permitted me to get a back to this).

If you do it wrong, you will be rebuilding your environment.

Only advice that I can give at this point is be VERY careful when you are updating the Certificates in the MOB.
