Environment

Release: CNMSPP99000-8.4-Unified Infrastructure Mgmt-Server Pack-- On Prem
Component:

Resolution

Current hub version 7.93 and previous versions do not support this configuration.
The upcoming release of UIM 9.0 will include a version of hub which will fully support SSL mode and encrypted communication within UIM.

As a workaround, the affected hub's probes that support IM Configuration should be configured using Infrastructure Manager instead of Admin Console.
