Re: [ovirt-users] Upgrading oVirt 3.6 with existing HTTPS certificate signed by custom CA to oVirt 4

Thanks Ravi, that's helpful and I appreciate the precision and attention to detail. I performed similar steps to install a custom certificate for the oVirt Manager GUI. But what about configuring ovirt-engine to trust a certificate issued by the same CA and presented by the VDSM host? On the hypervisor host, I used the existing private key to generate the CSR, issued the server certificate, and installed in three locations before bouncing vdsmd. On the hypervisor Host server (not the Manager/engine server): /etc/pki/vdsm/certs/vdsmcert.pem /etc/pki/vdsm/libvirt-spice/server-cert.pem /etc/pki/libvirt/clientcert.pem Now, that host is "non responsive" in Manager because ovirt-engine does not trust the new certificate even though I already performed all of the steps that you describe above except that I installed the issuer's CA certificate as the trusted entity. I've documented all of the steps I took in this Gist <https://gist.github.com/qrkourier/9c9ac3e8b190dcb91d3767179d5a39ea>;.
