E Configuring the Policy Sever for SSL by Using an Existing Certificate Infrastructure For environments that have an existing certificate infrastructure, configuring the Policy Sever for SSL requires the following procedures: • Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). • Using the CSR, have a Certificate Authority (CA) create an SSL certificate for the server. • Install the new certificate in the Policy Server keystore. • Install the CA certificate in the Policy Server keystore. NOTE: SSL certificate provisioning will vary across environments. The following example uses OpenSSL as a certificate infrastructure. This example is intended only as a reference. 1. Using OpenSSL, create an internal Certificate Authority. For more information, see http:// www.openssl.org/docs/apps/CA.pl.html. 2. Create a directory for the keystore file to reside in, as shown in the following example: C:\>mkdir c:\hp-3par C:\> 3. Change to the directory where the keystore file resides. 4. Using the keytool.exe command that is installed with the HP 3PAR Policy Server, generate a key for the server, as shown in the following example. NOTE: The keystore file is created when you run the keytool.exe command.

E Configuring the Policy Sever for SSL by Using an Existing
Certificate Infrastructure
For environments that have an existing certificate infrastructure, configuring the Policy Sever for
SSL requires the following procedures:
Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR).
Using the CSR, have a Certificate Authority (CA) create an SSL certificate for the server.
Install the new certificate in the Policy Server keystore.
Install the CA certificate in the Policy Server keystore.
NOTE:
SSL certificate provisioning will vary across environments. The following example uses
OpenSSL as a certificate infrastructure. This example is intended only as a reference.
1.
Using OpenSSL, create an internal Certificate Authority. For more information, see

2.
Create a directory for the keystore file to reside in, as shown in the following example:
C:\>mkdir c:\hp-3par
C:\>
3.
Change to the directory where the keystore file resides.
4.
Using the
keytool.exe
command that is installed with the HP 3PAR Policy Server, generate
a key for the server, as shown in the following example.
NOTE:
The keystore file is created when you run the
keytool.exe
command.
C:\Program Files (x86)\HP 3PAR\PolicyServer\jre\bin>keytool -genkey -alias tomcat
-keyalg RSA -keysize 1048 -keystore c:\hp-3par\keystore-ps
Enter keystore password:

Is CN=10.112.10.196, OU=ST, O=3PAR, L=Fremont, ST=CA, C=US correct?
[no]: yes
Enter key password for < tomcat >

Re-enter new password:
5.
Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) for the Policy Server:
C:\Program Files (x86)\HP 3PAR\PolicyServer\jre\bin>keytool -certreq -alias tomcat
-file c:\hp-3par\tomcat.csr -keystore c:\hp-3par\keystore-ps
Enter keystore password:
