How do I view/manage Single Sign-On Security Token Service (STS) Signing Certificates in vCenter Server 7.0?

Hi,

 

Can anyone please advise how I view/manage the STS certificates in vCenter Server v7.0?

 

In v6.x this could be done via the Web Client (Flash Client) by following the path "Administrator > Single Sign-On > Configuration > Certificates > STS Signing"

 

However the Flash Client is not available in v7.0 and there is no STS Signing option in the HTML5 Client. I have found specific reference to "Note: The STS certificate cannot be viewed from the HTML5 client" in https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/79248

 

I have downloaded the checksts.py python script that is mentioned in KB79248 and I can see the STS certificate SHA-1 thumbprints (and only that); but that is all it does.

 

 

I generated & refreshed new STS signing certs based on my VMCA signed certificate chain, and now I need to delete the old STS leaf & root certificates (highlighted).

 

I know it is against VMware's recommendation to replace these internal/self-signed STS certificates, but in some environments this is not acceptable.

 

Is there a CLI command to manage them, as the HTML5 client is clearly not 'feature parity' with the Web Client in this respect. :-(

 

As always, any help or advice will be welcomed.

 

Thanks

M
