IBM Cognos TM1 SSL Certificate

[maxcoder]

Hi,

With your permission , I have a question regarding IBM Cognos TM1 SSL Certificate. My question is : How do I create IBM Cognos TM1 SSL Certificate with openssl tool? Can you please send me step-by-step all these instructions?

Thanks in advance,

Kind Regards,

Not to doubt your question, but why would you want to generate the SSL certificate?

First of all , thanks for your answer. I want to define SSL certificate due to the all security policy requirements. How do I setup SSL Certificate in the IBM TM1 Server,Admin Server,TM1 Architect , IIS ?

Cheers,

I must echo the earlier statement as to why you would want to create your own certificate. I have never heard of company setting a security policy that would have them creating their own SSL certificates for third party products, only in-house software. Nevertheless, you should be asking this in an OpenSSL forum. I'm sure they can help you with the steps necessary to create your own certificate. Once the certificate is created you would just replace the TM1 supplied one with yours.

Actually, your question was:

How do I create IBM Cognos TM1 SSL Certificate with openssl tool?

which, of course, is not the same thing. Nevertheless, the link you were provided does tell you everything you need to know, it's not just in a neat little package.

It depends on what you want to secure.

TM1 Server/admin host/TM1 Web/Architect/Applications web .. what?
