The Automatically Import Management Server Certificate feature enables you to automatically import the HP SIM certificate when accessing the HP SMH from an HP SIM system.

Your login must have administrative access to HP SMH to automatically import the HP SIM certificate.

To automatically import the HP SIM certificate:

  1. From an HP Systems Insight Manager or HP Insight Manager 7 system, select a link to a system.

    If the [Trust By Certificate] option is selected in HP SMH Settings, click the Security link, and then click the Trust Mode, and a certificate for the HP SIM system you are accessing has not been imported into the Trusted Certificates List, the Sign In page displays the Automatically Import Management Server Certificate option. The Certificate Information retrieved from SERVER NAME displays the HP SIM certificate details.

  2. If you do not want to add the HP SIM certificate to the Trusted Certificates List; deselect Automatically Import Management Server Certificate. Deselecting this option still requires you to enter login credentials. However, administrator credentials are not required to login.

    If you enable HP SMH to automatically import the HP SIM certificate, future access to the system is seamless. You are not prompted for your login credentials.

  3. Leave Automatically Import Management Server Certificate selected, enter your HP SMH credentials, and then click [Sign In] to automatically import the certificate.

    The certificate is added to the Trusted Certificates List.
