Post migration notes

Migrating from any older versions of SSMC using the HPE SSMC Migration Tool overwrites the CA-signed certificate that may be installed on the target appliance with the one from source. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends you to install the CA-signed certificate on the target appliance only after you migrate. If your target appliance already has the CA-signed certificate installed, then you have to reinstall the CA-signed certificate post migration. The source SSMC may have a CA certificate configured and migration transfers the certificate to the appliance. Since the CA certificate is embedded with FQDN of the source SSMC, it may not be a desirable configuration. To fix this situation, you can consider one of the following options:

  • Assign the source SSMC FQDN or source SSMC IP or both to the new appliance based on what is referenced in the CA certificate.

  • Generate a new certificate for the new appliance IP or host with the right FQDN (or IP). Configure this new CA certificate with the new appliance.
