Hello folks, I have been tasked to update our WebUI server from Server 2019 to 2022 and since I have not done this in roughly 5 years, I am running into the following issue. I am being asked about generating some certificates. Can someone assist on how I can create these certificates? Our BigFix server is separate from our WebUI server.
createwebuicredentials
Use this service to generate the certificates used as WebUI credentials. Use the following syntax to run the command:
.\BESAdmin.exe /createwebuicredentials
/sitePvkLocation:<path+license.pvk>
/sitePvkPassword: /webUICertDir:
/webUIHostname:
This service generates a folder named cert_WebUIHostnameOrIP in the path specified by the webUICertDir option.
webUICertDir
Specifies the path to the parent folder of the new folder containing the certificates. This folder must exist.
webUIHostname
Specifies the hostname or IP address of the computer that will host your WebUI.
Note: If you need to generate WebUI credentials certificates, but you have no WebUI in your deployment, then set:
webUICertDir
To the BigFix server folder. For example, BigFix Enterprise\BES Server.
webUIHostname
To the BigFix server IP address or hostname.
