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

So first of all, we don't support replacing oVirt internal CA which is used to sign host certificates. This internal CA is also used to sign HTTPS certificate by default, but you can provided your own HTTPS certificate signed by custom CA. The correct steps how to do that are (assuming you have you custom CA certififcate in PEM format and HTTPS ceritificate along with private key in PKCS12 format): 1. Add your commercially issued certificate to the host-wide trust store. cp YOUR-3RD-PARTY-CA-CERT.pem /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors update-ca-trust 2. Remove Apache CA link pointing to oVirt internal rm /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/apache-ca.pem 3. Install your custom certificate (including complete certificate chain) mv YOUR-3RD-PARTY-CA-CERT.pem /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/apache-ca.pem

4. Extract private key and certificate ​ ​ openssl pkcs12 -in /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.p12 -nocerts -nodes > /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass ​ ​ openssl pkcs12 -in /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.p12 -nokeys > /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer ​5. Restart Apache service httpd restart 6. Create a new trust store configuration file. vi /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/99-custom-truststore.conf Add the following content and save the file. ENGINE_HTTPS_PKI_TRUST_STORE="/etc/pki/java/cacerts" ENGINE_HTTPS_PKI_TRUST_STORE_PASSWORD="" 7. Restart the ovirt-engine service. systemctl restart ovirt-engine.service​ ​Steps 1., 6. and 7. are new to 4.0, other steps are same as in oVirt 3.x​ ​Also it's expected that CA certificate (including whole CA chain) is properly installed in all clients that access oVirt using HTTP and/or Spice.​ ​Martin Perina​ On Thu, Oct 27, 2016 at 10:38 PM, Kenneth Bingham <w(a)qrk.us&gt; wrote: > That makes sense, but it is also disappointing to realize that oVirt > Manager will only trust certificates that itself has issued, and that there > is no support for Manager to trust VDSM server certificates issued by > another authority. > > If I understand you correctly, then the *only* way to install a VDSM host > certificate is by registering with Manager at which time a certificate is > automatically issued and installed by Manager's built-in certificate > authority. > > > On Thu, Oct 27, 2016 at 3:27 PM Ravi Nori <rnori(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > > Since you replace ca.pem you need to replace the private key of ca.pem > > Please copy the private key of /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem to > /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/private/ca.pem and let me know if everything works > > On Thu, Oct 27, 2016 at 2:47 PM, Kenneth Bingham <w(a)qrk.us&gt; wrote: > > > Thanks Ravi, that's helpful and I appreciate the precision and attention > to detail.
