Replicating trusted certificates
System administrators that have the HP SIM Require or First Time Accept features enabled can
replicate the trusted certificates list to other HP SIM systems. If you do not use the Require or First
Time Accept features of HP SIM as a two-way trust solution, this procedure is not necessary.
Two options are available to migrate the trusted certificates from a source CMS to a target CMS.
The first option can be used when the source CMS has many trusted certificates and the second
option can be used when a source CMS has fewer of trusted certificates.
WARNING! When migrating certificates, you lose the existing SSL Server Key and certificate on
the target CMS and must reestablish the trust relationship with any agents configured to trust the
target CMS. See Step 13.
Procedure 27 Migrate a trusted certificate from a source to a target CMS with many trusted
certificates
1. Log in with administrative rights HP SIM on the source CMS system.
2. Go to C\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager\config\certstor.
3. Copy the files named hp.keystore and keyfile.3.
4. Log in with administrative privileges to the target CMS system.
