Information to collect in advance
• Host name or IP address for management server
• SSL communication port number for the Tiered Storage Manager server (default: 24500)
You can use the server.rmi.security.port property in the server.properties file of
the Tiered Storage Manager server to check the port number.
(see “Changing ports used by Common Component” on page 85, “server.rmi.secur-
ity.port” on page 506)
To enable SSL/TLS for the Tiered Storage Manager CLI computer:
1. Specify the absolute path of the truststore file, including the file name, for the environment variable
HTSM_CLI_CERTS_PATH.
If you run the Tiered Storage Manager CLI with the current directory set as the server certificate
storage directory, you can omit the HTSM_CLI_CERTS_PATH setting.
2. Change the settings in the htsmcli.properties file.
• htsmserver.location property
Specify the location of the Tiered Storage Manager server in the following format:
htsmserver.location=rmi://management-server-IP-address-or-host-name:
Tiered-Storage-Manager-server-SSL-port-number/HTSMServer
• option.secure property
Set true. Because the option.secure property is not included in the template file, add it
as follows:

option.secure=true
