VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED for servers and clients
The VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED option enables the validation of virtualization server certificates using its root or intermediate certificate authority (CA) certificates.
By default, the VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED option is set to UNDEFINED.
The security certificate validation is enabled for RHV and Nutanix AHV servers, but is disabled for VMware servers.
Note:
In a scenario where an external CA can be configured for one virtualization server, but not for the other, two separate backup hosts must be used. The VIRTUALIZATION_HOSTS_SECURE_CONNECT_ENABLED option must be set to YES for the backup host where the external CA can be configured. The option must be set to NO for the other backup host.
