Issue/Introduction

This article aims to inform customers that when a custom certificate on VMware products expires, it is not possible to renew the certificates via Aria Lifecycle Manager.

If the product is SSL terminated, you must manually replace the certificate and CA in the load balancer first. The VMware Identity Manager requires this step.

Expired certificates CANNOT be replaced through Aria Lifecycle. (HTTPS API calls between Aria Lifecycle and  Aria suite products  APIs won't work with an expired certificate).

Environment

VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle

VMware Aria Operations 

VMware Aria Operations for Logs

VMware Aria Automation

VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator

 

Resolution

To ensure the continued security and functionality of your VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle, please follow the steps below to renew your certificate:

  1. Take a snapshot before trying any changes on affected VMware Aria Suite product(s)
  2. Manually change the certificate
  3. Import this certificate in VMware Aria Suite Lifecyclelocker.
  4. Later do an inventory sync through VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle.
