Hi,

I am using MQ5.3 CSD 10 and am using SSL third party CA (verisign) certificate in my channel. SSL certificate is going to expire on Sep2nd so What i am doing already I have requested new CSR from new database file which has been created in temp location.

What I am going to do is once I get the certificate I will place that in new database and copy in /var/mqm/qmgrs/qmgrname/ssl/key directory and will take copy of original running database file.

If anything goes wrong can I copy back existing certificate till it expires.

Do I need to restart the qmgr.

Advise me

Thanks

Upgrade your qmgr to v6.

Import the new certificate into the iKeyman/GSKit database.

Don't import the expiring certificate.

Please don't double-post.

We are planing to upgrade in Sep first week but before that I need to update certificate because it's expiring on Sep 2nd.
After updating the certificate do I need to restart the qmgr.

Thanks

You can use refresh security type(ssl).

Very often it will be enough.
(sometimes not ) . It depends on OS of connected QMGRs.
