Issue/Introduction

Starting with Operations Manager 3.2, the endpoint previously used to retrieve the Root Certificate Authority (CA) has been moved. Attempting to use the legacy URL will receive a 404 Not Found or a connection error.

This change affects both direct browser downloads and automation scripts utilizing the om CLI or curl.

Attempts to download the root certificate using the following methods will fail:

  • OM CLI: om -k curl -s -p /download_root_ca_cert

  • Direct URL: https://<OPS_MANAGER_URL>/download_root_ca_cert

Environment

Operations Manager v3.2 and above

Cause

The UI path was intentionally restructured in Operations Manager 3.2 to align with updated UI path architecture. The legacy endpoint has been deprecated and replaced by the /classic/ path, thus the new one is /classic/download_root_ca_cert. 

Resolution

Operations Manager UI path is not guaranteed unchanged, to successfully download the Root CA certificate, please use REST API instead. 

  • GET https://<OPS_MANAGER_URL>/api/v0/certificate_authorities
