Receiving a signed certificate
A Certificate Authority (CA) creates a certificate from a certificate request. WebSphere® Application Server keystore receives the certificate from the CA and generates a CA-signed personal certificate that your Sametime® Gateway Server cluster can use for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security.
Before you begin
Expected state: the Deployment Manager and the node agents are started. The servers are stopped.
Note: WebSphere Application Server creates the
certificate chain when the signed certificate is received. The chain
is constructed from the signer certificates that are in the keystore
at the time the certificate is received. Be sure to import all intermediate
certificates as signer certificates into the keystore before receiving
the CA-signed certificate.
