Hi Community,
We have two servers to log into the smartconsole, one of the servers I can no longer log into the smart console, we reboot the server and problem still, knowing that I can access from the second server,
Also note that the SIC certificat is still valid,
can please advise about this matter
Below command should help. run those from expert prompt and ensure you have full backup taken before performing this activity
cpca_client lscert -stat Valid
cpca_client lscert -stat Valid -kind SIC
cd $CPDIR/conf
ls -lh | grep sic
cp $CPDIR/conf/sic_cert.p12{,_BACKUP}
cpca_client revoke_cert -n "CN=cp_mgmt"
cpca_client create_cert -n "CN=cp_mgmt" -f $CPDIR/conf/sic_cert.p12
Can you please attach the screenshot of the error you see?
Andy
This does not make much sense. Any screenshots & details?

thanks blason i will proceed to create a new certificate
Hi Blason
I have the same problem with smart console,
if i create new certificate to the management according to your suggestion does it affect the SIC communication with branch gateway .
I have management R 80.20 version and yesterday i logged in to the management and get alarm "connection can not be initiated" and all gateway sic not connection is down. Today after reboot the management I see error Certificate Revoked and can't loggin to the smart console
It would affect the SIC, as you issue brand new cert.
You mean following my commands? Nope it wont affect SIC for sure since I have done this multiple times.
Sorry, my bad, I responded here, but meant to on something else related to fwm_sic reset command. @ilirz , Blason is right, those commands wont affect SIC.
thank you,ok I will follow Blason suggestion
Great, keep us posted if it works.
Andy
I tried on management r 80.20 take 220 and worked. Thank you to all!
Great job, have a nice weekend!
Thanks Blason
Follow sk20905 and it should resolve your issue
Still unclear. Are you using a certificate to login to SmartConsole?
Also, R80.20 is out of support for a while, I hope you know that.
Thanks for replay,
yes we use certificate to login to SC , i checked before and is still valid
thanks for the note
Issue a new certificate to that client and try again.
Just do what Val said, issue new cert.
