15.1 Installing Centralized Certificate Management Binaries

The new rpm oes-cert-mgmt.rpm is installed on the server by default with the OES 23.4 release.

At /opt/novell/oes-cert-mgmt/bin, you will find all the executables that you need to list the certificates, replace certificates and configure services to use new certificates.

Certificate of some of the services is grouped under one service. If certificate is changed for that service, then all services grouped under it will also have the updated certificate.
