VMware SRM with Certificates

Setup

  • VMware vCenter 5.1 Update 2
  • ESXi 5.1 Update 2
  • SRM 5.1 Update 2

Issue

Unable to do Site Pairing due to certificates not matching

Analysis

Post discussion we figured out that Production side vCenter was installed with custom certificates
We researched to find that if a vCenter is using trusted certificates then SRM must also use trusted certificates. Refer following KB Article

Resolution

Following components should be installed with trusted certificates
  • Recovery vCenter
  • Production & Recovery SRM Servers
