Frequently asked questions

Why does the Cannot Access Other Controller dialog box appear?
When you perform certain operations related to CA certificates (for example, importing a certificate), you might see a dialog box prompting you to accept a self-signed certificate for the second controller.
How do I know what certificates need to be uploaded to System Manager for external key management?
For external key management, you import two types of certificates for authentication between the storage array and the key management server so the two entities can trust each other.
What do I need to know about certificate revocation checking?
System Manager allows you to check for revoked certificates by using an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) server, instead of uploading Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).
What types of servers will revocation checking be enabled for?
The storage array performs revocation checking whenever it connects to an AutoSupport server, External Key Management Server (EKMS), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol over SSL (LDAPS) server, or a Syslog server.
