About this task

Using CA-signed certificates is a three-step procedure.

  1. Step 1: Complete CSRs for the controllers
    You must first generate a certificate signing request (CSR) file for each controller in the storage array.
  2. Step 2: Submit the CSR files
    After you create the certificate signing request (CSR) files, send the files to a certificate authority (CA).
  3. Step 3: Import signed certificates for controllers
    After you receive signed certificates from the Certificate Authority (CA), import the files for the controllers.
