Foglight Hybrid Cloud Manager 1.9 - User Guide (for Google environments)

Managing certificates for FMS in FIPS-compliant mode

Use the keytool utility shipped with Foglight to create, import, or export certificates. This utility can be found at: <foglight_home>\jre\bin\keytool.

The KeyStore Foglight used in FIPS-compliant mode is located at: <foglight_home>/config/security/trust.fips.keystore (default password: nitrogen)

Add a certificate in FIPS-compliant mode

Use the keytool command in FMS JRE located in <foglight>/jre/bin.

keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias "<alias>" -file "<certificate path>" -keystore "<Foglight_home>/config/security/trust.fips.keystore" -deststoretype BCFKS -provider org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.BouncyCastleFipsProvider -providerpath "<Foglight_home>/server/core/bc-fips.jar" -storepass nitrogen

•
Validate the certificate and ensure the following:
•
It is not expired.
•
It is an X.509 format.
•
Change the following before executing the command
•
<alias>: The alias is required and is used in the list and delete operations to refer to the certificate. It can be anything.
•
<Foglight_home>: The folder path where Foglight is installed.
•
<certificate path>: Your custom certificate path.

List installed certificates

keytool -list -keystore "<Foglight_home>/config/security/trust.fips.keystore" -deststoretype BCFKS -provider org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.BouncyCastleFipsProvider -providerpath "<Foglight_home>/server/core/bc-fips.jar" -storepass nitrogen

Prints out a list of certificates and the aliases that refer to them.

Refer to the example output below:
