Installed certificates Section in XO - What does it do?
-
When viewing the advanced section about a host, at the very bottom is this:
What does that do? I looked int he documentation, but couldn't find the section.
-
It installs certificates for XAPI, allowing you to get a valid XAPI connection to your host without by passing cert validity (in XO: settings/server)

@olivierlambert - Thanks for the quick response. So if I were to use a local cert (say, generated from my pfSense box), I would be able to use that cert.
Would I then just use the cert for the CA (my pfSense CA) in the Certificate Chain box?
I'd love to use Acme here, but something tells me it's more complicated than that.

Sadly it's not easy to get ACME cert support in XAPI

@olivierlambert - I'd also like to say that I'm a very recent homelab convert over to XCP-NG. I've been using VMWare for like... 15 years.
I have a project at work that I use native Xen for, and have been really impressed with the security and control that we get out of it.
I've been in the process of shifting over to XCP-NG over this Christmas break, and I've been really, really happy. There was a bit of a learning curve, but I'm very happy that I'm going to be getting an increase in functionality over my free ESXi instance.
Really great work you're all doing!
