Generating a CSR

Generating a CSR

You can generate a certificate signing request (CSR) from the SSL Certificate page. A certificate authority (CA) can use the CSR to create an SSL certificate for you. This CSR will contain information to be included in the certificate, such as organization name, common name (domain name), locality, and country. It also contains the public key that will be included in the certificate. Generating a new CSR generates a new private key therefore certificates signed with a previously generated CSR will no longer be installable.

To generate a CSR, complete the following steps:

1.
In the left navigation menu, click System Configuration → SSL Certificate.
The SSL Certificate page is displayed.
2.
On the Action menu in the upper right corner of the page, click Generate CSR. The Generate CSR pane is displayed.
Common Name - The domain to be secured by the certificate.
Organization Name - The organization's legal business name.
Organization Unit - A department in the organization.
Locality - The business location.
State Name - The state/province of the business location

Managing storage groups

Managing storage groups

To organize your data, you can easily create storage groups and create containers within those storage groups on your DR Series system. A storage group allows you to create separate storage policies for different data groups and the different capacities utilized on a single DR Series system. You can also create and organize storage groups for the different organizations in your enterprise, such as Engineering, Sales, Finance, and so on.

After initialization, the DR Series system contains a single default storage group, named DefaultGroup.

Refer to these important notes about storage groups.

To view the Storage Groups page, on the left navigation menu, click System Configuration > Storage Groups.
