Enabling SSL HTTPS on core Windows CLM applications that currently use HTTP

Most core CLM applications already use SSL HTTPS mode (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) by default, for example, Platform Manager. This topic describes how to enable SSL HTTPS for the remaining Windows BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management applications that are currently in HTTP mode, for example, Mid Tier or Atrium Orchestrator. This topic provides detailed configuration steps to make the secured communication between the components.

Core Cloud Lifecycle Management applications that support default SSL HTTPS during installation

The following table lists the core CLM applications that support default HTTPS during installation:

Before you begin

• Take a snapshot of your VMs or back up your servers. This precaution is necessary if you make a mistake and need to roll back your changes! 
• When importing certificates, keypairs, or keystores, use the JRE embedded with the product or the latest version of JRE/Java installed on your host. 
• If you are using a Google Chrome browser and encounter the weak ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key error, see KA428034 for a helpful workaround. To review this workaround in context, see To configure AMREPO to work with SSL.

To create a Root CA certificate using OpenSSL

1. Download and install 64-bit OpenSSL1.0 on its own host.
   For example, download OpenSSL from the Shining Light Productions website. There are multiple OpenSSL versions available. Make sure that you install an OpenSSL version that includes the openSSL.cfg file. 
2. Create Keys, Certificates, and CSR folders. 
   These categories are for placing keys, certificates files, and so on.
3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the OpenSSL folder. 

4. Generate the key pair for root CA. 
   Store this key pair in the C:\Keys\RootCA.key file.

   C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin>openssl genrsa -out C:\Keys\RootCA.key 2048
   Loading 'screen' into random state - done
   Generating RSA private key, 2048 bit long modulus
   ...............++++++
   ....................................................++++++
   e is 65537 (0x10001)

5. Generate a self signed certificate for CA. 
   This CA certificate is used across all cloud products as a common certificate. Store the certificate in the RootCA.crt file.

   1. Enter the following command:

      C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin>openssl req 
      -config C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openSSL.cfg
      -new -x509 -days 365 -key C:\Keys\RootCA.key
      -out C:\Certificates\RootCA.crt

   2. Create a Distinguished Name (DN)..
      Make sure that you enter all required information. Many fields contain defaults. Some settings you can leave blank. If you enter a period, the field will be left blank. 

      Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:US
      State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:California
      Locality Name (eg, city) []:San Jose
      Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:BMC Software
      Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:IDD
      Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []:clm-aus-011538.bmc.com
      Email Address []:jstamps@bmc.com

   3. Press Enter to create the certificate.

To import self-signed certificates for new 4.5 installations

When you are performing new installations, you must import SSL certificates for Small or Medium deployments. 

The following CLM products already have HTTPS/SSL enabled by default:

• Platform Manager
• Self-Check Monitor
• Cloud Portal Web Application
• BMC Network Automation
• BMC Server Automation
• BMC Capacity Optimization (if you assigned HTTPS/8443 over SSL during installation)

If you installed Platform Manager with the installer planner on HTTPS/SSL with Small or Medium deployments, you still must import the cacerts file from the Platform Manager into the JRE on the following products:

• Mid Tier
• Cloud Portal Web Application
• CLM Self-Check Monitor
• Cloud Portal and Database AR System server

• Atrium Orchestrator

  Note

  Before you import the cacerts file, BAO Access Manager must already be configured to use HTTPS/8443 over SSL and BAO CDP must be configured to use HTTPS/9443 over SSL. For more information, see To configure BMC Atrium Orchestrator with SSL.

1. Copy the cacerts file on the Platform Manager to the product host.
   For example, copy the cacerts file from the installed JVM on Platform Manager to the C:\TEMP folder.  

   Note

   The cacerts file installed with the Platform Manager is located by default at C:\Program Files\BMC Software\BMCCloudLifeCycleManagement\JVM_1.7.0_55\lib\security\cacerts for version 4.5.
2. Open a command window on the product host.
3. Change directories to the JRE version 8 bin directory (for example, C:\Program Files\BMC Software\CloudPortalWebApplication\jre\bin)

4. Import the keystore (cacerts) certificate in the application cacerts.
   Make sure that you understand which JRE your application used during installation. This example imports the keystore certificate into the cacerts of an external JRE used. 

   keyTool -importkeystore -srckeystore "C:\TEMP\cacerts" 
   -destkeystore "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\security\cacerts" 
   -srcstoretype JKS -deststoretype JKS -srcstorepass changeit 
   -deststorepass changeit -noprompt

   However, this example imports the keystore certificate into the cacerts of the bundled JRE used by the Cloud Portal Web Application (clmui). 

   keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore "C:\TEMP\cacerts" 
   -destkeystore "C:\Program Files\BMC Software\CloudPortalWebApplication\jre\lib\security\cacerts" 
   -srcstoretype JKS -deststoretype JKS -srcstorepass changeit  
   -deststorepass changeit -noprompt

5. To monitor Dashboard Data, import the CLM Self-Check Monitor certificate (selfcheckSslCertificate.cert) with the JRE used by the Cloud Portal Web Application (whether installed on the Platform Manager or on a separate host) during installation. 
   The default location of selfcheckSslCertificate.cert is C:\Program Files\BMC Software\SelfChecker\selfchecker\Certificates.

6. Restart the application service. 
   For example, restart the BMC CSM Portal service.

7. Flush the browser cache. 

8. Clear the Mid Tier Plugins Cache.
9. Log on to the application, add and confirm the site exception, and so on.

To enable SSL HTTPS with the Mid Tier

1. On the Mid Tier host, create Keys, Certificates, and CSR folders. 
2. Stop the Mid Tier Tomcat server.
3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the JRE folder. 

4. Create a keypair using the keytool utility.
   If the Mid Tier is behind a load balancer, use CN as the load balancer name.  But here it is vw-aus-clnidd03. 

   C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>keytool.exe -genkey 
   -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 
   -keypass "changeit" -storepass "changeit" -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks

5. At the prompts, enter the required information to create the keypair, and then press Enter. 

   C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>keytool.exe -genkey -alias tomcat 
   -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keypass "changeit" 
   -storepass "changeit" -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks
   What is your first and last name?
     [Unknown]:  vw-aus-clnidd03
   What is the name of your organizational unit?
     [Unknown]:  IDD
   What is the name of your organization?
     [Unknown]:  BMC
   What is the name of your City or Locality?
     [Unknown]:  SAN JOSE
   What is the name of your State or Province?
     [Unknown]:  CA
   What is the two-letter country code for this unit?
     [Unknown]:  US
   Is CN=vw-aus-clnidd03, OU=IDD, O=BMC, L=SAN JOSE, ST=CA, C=US correct?
     [no]:  yes

6. Create the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) from Mid Tier primary to retrieve the certificate from CA (i.e. CLM).

   C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>keytool.exe 
   -certreq -keyalg RSA -alias tomcat -file C:\CSR\mt.csr 
   -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks
   Enter keystore password:

   At the prompt, enter changeit as the password.

7. Copy the mt.csr file to the CSR folder where OpenSSL is installed so that you can generate a certificate, and then run the following command on the OpenSSL computer:

   C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin>openssl x509 -req -days 365 
   -in C:\CSR\mt.csr -CA C:\Certificates\RootCA.crt 
   -CAkey C:\Keys\RootCA.key -set_serial 01 
   -out C:\Certificates\mt_server.crt
    Loading 'screen' into random state - done
   Signature ok
   subject=/C=US/ST=CA/L=SAN JOSE/O=BMC/OU=IDD/CN=vw-aus-clnidd03
   Getting CA Private Key

8. After the certificate is generated (mt_server.crt) in the Certificates folder, copy mt_server.crt and RootCA.crt to the Mid Tier primary and secondary computers into their Certificates folder.

9. On the Mid Tier primary and secondary computers, import the Root CA certificate:

   C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>keytool.exe 
   -import -alias root 
   -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks 
   -trustcacerts -file C:\Certificates\RootCA.crt
   Enter keystore password:
   Owner: EMAILADDRESS=jstamps@bmc.com, CN=JOHN, OU=IDD, O=BMC, L=SJ, ST=CA, C=US
   Issuer: EMAILADDRESS=jstamps@bmc.com, CN=JOHN, OU=IDD, O=BMC, L=SJ, ST=CA, C=US
   ...
   Trust this certificate? [no]:  yes
   Certificate was added to keystore
   C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>

   1. At the prompt, enter changeit as the password.

   2. When you see the Trust this certificate prompt, enter yes. 
      Your certificate is added to the keystore.  

10. Import the mt_server.crt certificate:

    C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin>keytool.exe 
    -import -alias tomcat 
    -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks -trustcacerts 
    -file C:\Certificates\mt_server.crt
    Enter keystore password:
    Certificate reply was installed in keystore

    At the prompt, enter changeit as the password. Your certificate reply is installed in the keystore.  

11. Open the server.xml file (in Windows, the default location is C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat6.0\conf\server.xml) in a text editor and uncomment the SSL related sections.

    1. Search for the following text and uncomment out the Connector port section:
       

       <!-- Define a SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443
                This connector uses the JSSE configuration, when using APR, the 
                connector should be using the OpenSSL style configuration
                described in the APR documentation -->
           <!--
           <Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
                      maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                      clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
           -->

        

    2. Modify the Connector port information as follows:
       

       <Connector port="9443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
                  maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                  clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" 
                  keystoreFile="C:\Keys\keystore.jks"
       		   keystorePass="<passwordMustEqualYourKeystorePassword>"	
       />

        Here you change the connector port to 9443 and add the keyStore file location and keystore password.
       

       Note

       If you do not add the correct keystore password, the Tomcat server does not start properly. 

    3. Save the server.xml .

        

12. Start the Tomcat server.
13. Verify your changes to the Mid Tier or Mid Tier Load Balancer by accessing the following URL:
    https://midTier:9443/arsys (where 9443 is SSL port)
    https://loadBalancer:9443/arsys
14. Add and confirm any security restrictions in your browser.
     
15. When you access the Mid Tier the first time, review the certificate details.
    1. Review the General tab and verify who the certificate is issued to and who it was issued by.
    2. Click the Details tab and, review the certificate path or hierarchy.
16. Continue logging on to the Cloud Portal and Database AR System server.

To configure BMC Atrium Orchestrator with SSL HTTPS

A HA environment typically has the following components installed.

• Host A Primary: AMREPO (Access Manager and Repository) and CDP installed
• Host B Secondary: AMREPO and HACDP installed
• Host C: SQL DB for AMREPO

In non-HA environments, BMC Atrium Orchestrator Access Manager and Repository are installed on a single server. For example, see To install Atrium Orchestrator AMREPO in Installing Small Deployment Windows for version 4.5.

1. On the main AO hosts (for example, Host A and B), create Keys, Certificates, and CSR folders.

2. Stop the Access Manager and Repository service and the Configuration Distribution Peer (CDP) service.

3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the AMREPO JRE folder (for example, C:\Program Files\BMC Software\AO-Platform\AMREPO\jvm\bin). 

4. On primary Host A, create a keypair using the keytool utility. 
   If Atrium Orchestrator is behind a load balancer, use CN as the load balancer name.  
   At the prompts, enter the required information to create the keypair, and then press Enter.

   Certificate was added to keystore

3. Import the ao.crt certificate into keystore.jks (for example, C:\Keys\keystore.jks):

   keytool.exe -import -alias AO -keystore C:\Keys\keystore.jks 
   -trustcacerts -file C:\Certificates\ao.crt
   Enter keystore password:
   Certificate reply was installed in keystore

4. Open the Access Manager server.xml file (in Windows, for example, C:\Program Files\BMC Software\AO-Platform\AMREPO\tomcat\conf\server.xml) in a text editor and uncomment the SSL related sections. 

   1. Search for the following text and uncomment out the Connector port section:

      <!-- Define a SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443
               This connector uses the JSSE configuration, when using APR, the 
               connector should be using the OpenSSL style configuration
               described in the APR documentation -->
          <!--
          <Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
                     maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                     clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
          -->

   2. Modify the Connector port information as follows.
      Uncomment the following section and change the protocol from HTTP/1.1 to org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol, and add the keystoreFile path for keystore.jks. 
      Make sure that you save the file.

      Note

      This section also includes the ciphers that fix the weak ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key error that you see with Google Chrome browsers. 

      <Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol" 
                     SSLEnabled="true"
                     maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                     clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
                      ciphers="TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256,

      				TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384_P521, TLS_RSA_WITH_NULL_SHA256, 
      				TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA"
      			   keystoreFile="C:\Keys\keystore.jks"
      />

5. Update the Login page entry in the context.xml file (for example, C:\Program Files\BMC Software\AO-Platform\AMREPO\tomcat\conf\context.xml) as follows:

   <Environment name="com.bmc.security.am.LOGIN_PAGE" 
   override="true" type="java.lang.String" 
   value="https://clm-hou-007778:8443/baoam/login.jsf"/>

6. Start the AMREPO server and verify the Access Manager URL.
   For example:
   https://AMPrimaryHost:8443/baoam
7. Add and confirm any security restrictions in your browser.
   For example, the certificate should display Issued by: bmc.com and Issued to: vw-aus-clmidd04. 
    
8. Verify the Repository Manager URL and certificates.
   For example:
   https://AMPrimaryHost:8443/baorepo
9. Make the same changes to the secondary AMREPO server.
   1. Copy the keystore file.
   2. Update the server.xml and context.xml files.
   3. Import the Root CA certificate.
   4. Start the secondary Access Manager server. 
   5. Verify the URL.

9. Access the BMC Server Automation application server from Atrium Orchestrator hosts,
   When you access the BMC Server Automation application server from Atrium Orchestrator hosts, it should display the following certificate details.
   

To configure BMC Server Automation and Atrium Orchestrator with SSL HTTPS

You already generated the keystore.jks file in C:\Keys\keystore.jks and the RootCA.crt file in C:\Certificates on both hosts.

1. Import the RootCA.crt certificate into the Bladelogic java security file on both nodes as follows:

   keytool.exe -import -alias root 
   -keystore "C:\Program Files\BMC Software\BladeLogic\NSH\jre\
   lib\security\cacerts" -trustcacerts -file C:\Certificates\RootCA.crt

2. Log into the BMC Server Automation server from both hosts with defaultProfile and verify the certificate obtained. 

To configure Atrium Orchestrator and Platform Manager with SSL HTTPS

1. On the Platform Manager server, update the provider.json file for AO details like https and ports number wherever required.
