Configuring the HTTPS Certificate for auto-deployment

By default the MVMM Configuration Agent uses an HTTPS connection to retrieve deployment information. A certificate for that HTTPS server is included in a java key store if using an agent distribution of the MVMM Configuration Agent. It is stored in the file configuration/services/httpsTrustStore.jks, unless configured otherwise.

The key store should be updated if ...

• The agent connects to a different host
• The certificate is updated
• The agent was not retrieved using agent distribution

To update the key store with a new HTTPS certificate, firstly make any other configuration changes (e.g. change the services host, or update the certificate on the service tier).

• Stop the MVMM Configuration Agent.
• Start the MVMM Configuration Agent in console mode.
• Issue the storeHTTPSCertificate command
• Respond to the prompts as appropriate
• Exit the console mode, and restart the MVMM Configuration Agent.

See the following example session.

Alternatively, the key store can be manipulated directly with the java keytool command (For example, to import certificates from other sources).
