How to use an existing certificate for the ABAP SSL setup using STRUST

[Former Member]

Hi

All the documentation say to Create certificate Request and subsequently import the Certificate response from a CA.

In our case, the company has a certificate from a valid CA root and we would like to use this when creating the SSL PSE files, in particular, the SSL Server PSE.

Should I use sapgenpse instead of strust??

What are the steps to apply the certificate (www.company.com.au) to this instance (host.dom.internal)??????

Thanks

Hi

I received the instructions from SAP on how to do this. I'll post it here for others to use:

1. Create a pkcs12 certificate file from your existing certificate

2. Copy to your PC

3. In transaction STRUST , click on FILE at bottom left hand pane.

4. In the file dialog box select the pkcs12 file copied to your PC.

5. Select PSE -> Save As

6. In the Save As dialog, select the appropriate PSE to save as.

7. Restart ICM (althought I had to restart the instance to get it to work).

You can save your certificate on the client or server PSE, or both.

Hope this will help.
