Using external security certificates with NetBackup

NetBackup 8.2 and later versions support the security certificates that are issued by an external CA. External certificates and the certificate revocation list for an external certificate authority must be managed outside of NetBackup. The External certificates tab displays details for the NetBackup 8.1 and later hosts in the domain and whether or not they use external certificates.

See View external certificate information for the NetBackup hosts in the domain.

Before you can see external certificate information in Certificates > External certificates, you must first configure the master server and the NetBackup web server to use external certificates. See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide for details.

See the video External CA support in NetBackup for details.
