HP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.3.1-00 Configuration Guide

Securing communications between Replication Manager and the Device Manager
server
To encrypt communications between Replication Manager on the management server and the Device
Manager server (local or remote), you must create a server certificate for the Device Manager server
and import it into the truststore (jssecacerts) file in Replication Manager.
Figure 15 Flow of operations for setting up secure communications between Replication Manager and
the Device Manager server
If you use a well-known certificate authority (CA), its server certificate might already be in the truststore
(jssecacerts). In this case, you do not need to import the CA’s server certificate again.
For more information on the procedures for the Device Manager server and Common Component,
and information on the truststore, see the following descriptions in the HP StorageWorks P9000
