If you are unable to connect to the management GUI from
your web browser and received a Certificate expired or
similar error, this information might help you resolve the issue.
- Access the CLI by using ssh.
- Run the lseventlog CLI command.
- Use the fix procedures for any error events, for example,
2258 - System SSL certificate has expired.
- If the system SSL certificate is expired and no longer
valid, connections to the GUI, service assistant, and the CIMOM are
likely to generate security exceptions.
- Check that the system time and date is correct. If the
system time or date is incorrect, it can cause the certificate to
be incorrectly marked as expired.
- Create a new self-signed system certificate, or create
a certificate request. Get it signed by your certificate authority
and install the signed request.
Note: If it takes some
time to get a certificate signed, you can also create a self-signed
certificate to use while you wait for your request to be signed.
