*Export the RR configuration file (RR-config.xml) to a editable format using the get SSL RR command.
*Modify the SSL RR configuration parameters.
*Execute the set SSL RR command to define the SSL security values for CRR.
*To set the security configuration for registry repository
1. Export the RR configuration file (RR-config.xml) to an editable format. For more information, see Obtaining Security Configuration of CentraSite Registry Repository.
The com.softwareag.centrasite.security.crr.* properties must be in basic non-store formats, PEM key or cert or cacert.
The default configuration, the same CA certificate is used for both client and server certificates.
To update the SSL security values of the port, modify the com.softwareag.centrasite.security.crr.* properties.
2. To define the SSL security values for CRR, run the command set SSL RR.
Note:
You have to run the set SSL RR command as a windows administrator.
The syntax is of the format: C:\SoftwareAG\CentraSite\utilities>CentraSiteCommand.cmd set SSL RR -url <CENTRASITE-URL> -user <USER-ID> -password <PASSWORD> -file <CONFIG-FILE>
