Change a Self-Signed Server Certificate
If you want to sign your packages with a server certificate different from the one you used for the initial
Orchestrator configuration, you need to export all your packages and reinstall the Orchestrator server.
Procedure
1 Export all your packages.
a Click the Packages view in the Orchestrator client.
b Right-click the package to export and select Export package.
c Browse to select a location in which to save the package and click Open.
d Leave the View content, Re-Packageable, and Edit element options selected.
CAUTION Do not sign the package with your current certificate. You must not encrypt the package.
When you delete the certificate database, the private key will be lost and the content of the exported
package will become unavailable.
e (Optional) Deselect the Export version history check box if you do not want to export the version
history.
f Click Save.
2 (Optional) Export the Orchestrator configuration.
3 Uninstall the Orchestrator server.
4 Delete the Orchestrator database, or create a backup if you want to keep old data.
The database you bind Orchestrator to must not contain records in the vmo_keystore table.
5 Reinstall the Orchestrator server.
6 (Optional) Import your Orchestrator configuration.
7 Create a new self-signed certificate or import one.
8 Reimport your packages.
a Click the Packages view in the Orchestrator client.
b From the drop-down menu, select Import package.
c Browse to select the package to import and click Open.
d Click Import or Import and trust provider.
e Click Import checked elements.
The server certificate change is effective at the next package export.
Configure the Default Plug-Ins
To deploy the set of default plug-ins when the Orchestrator server starts, the system must authenticate against
the LDAP server. You can specify the administrative credentials that Orchestrator uses with plug-ins, and
enable as well as disable plug-ins on the Plug-ins tab.
If you change the Orchestrator database after configuring and installing the default plug-ins, you must click
the Reset current version link in the Troubleshooting tab. This operation deletes the
install_directory
\app-
server\server\vmo\plugins\_VSOPluginInstallationVersion.xml file, which holds the version of the plug-ins
already installed, and forces plug-in reinstallation.
