Configuring BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio to communicate  with a CDP over HTTPS


To run the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio over HTTPS with a self-signed certificate, configure the Java virtual machine (JVM) to trust the SSL certificate on the CDP host. Export the SSL certificate from the CDP keystore and import it into the trust store that BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio uses.

If the CDP is using a certificate from a certifying authority, you do not need this procedure.

Before you begin

Configure the CDP host to support HTTPS, ensuring the certificate that enables HTTPS has not expired.
By default, the trust store on the machine that hosts Development Studio uses the password changeit. The keystore entry on the CDP host uses the alias tomcat.

Note

If you do not have access to the server where the CDP is installed, you can still export the certificate from your browser. To export the certificate, log on to CDP over HTTPS and save the certificate as X.509 Certificate (PEM). You can perform the steps mentioned in export the certificate file from the keystore on the CDP and import it into the development studio trust store to import it in the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio trust store. 

To export the certificate file from the keystore on the CDP and import it into the development studio trust store

  1. Log on to the CDP server using the same credentials used for starting the CDP.
    • For Linux and UNIX environments, start a Terminal session and navigate to the AO_HOME/jvm/bindirectory on the CDP. Enter the following command:

      keytool -export -alias tomcat -file tomcat.crt
    • In a Microsoft Windows environment, from a command prompt on the CDP server, navigate to the AO_HOME\jvm\bindirectory and enter the following command:

      keytool -export -alias tomcat -file tomcat.crt
