Query on replacing CA bundle certificate on Dell R470 servers

[podurianusha06-cloud]

Hi,

We are trying to replace the CA certificate in the server and could see import is failed. Wanted to verify the exact commands to work on it? i tried all the workarounds, but could see the same issue.
In idrac, we could see the certificate has been successfully uploaded.

Could you please provide any other commands if the commands i shared are different?

Hi @podurianusha06-cloud

iDRAC GUI help text states if custom cert is in use you must first delete it before to install new one. Can you try this out and see if it resolves your issue.

From GUI help text:

Thanks

Hi, We are trying to replace the CA bundle. From the image sent, we could see that it is for uploading the new certificate. But, for replacing we will be having some existing certificate and we would be trying to replace it right. Is that supported? Thanks, Poduri Anusha

Can you share details how the new cert was created, did you use OpenSSL? If yes iDRAC10 does not support older versions of OpenSSL, must use version 3.x or newer.

Can you also share the iDRAC error you're getting? I just tried to replace custom cert using iDRAC GUI (upload button) and no issues. Also i did not delete the current custom cert, i just tried upload and no issues so i need to escalate the help text being incorrect.

Thanks
Tex

Hi, I have shared the commands used to generate and upload certificates while creating the github ticket. Could you please check those logs and let me know if any other input is required? We didn't use openssl, instead we used certtool and created it. Thanks, Poduri Anusha

I don't see any commands listed or attached, only GUI images. Are you using Redfish commands to generate and upload / replace the cert? If yes can you copy and paste the commands here.

Thanks
