We are running IBM i 7.1
I have looked in 7.2 memo to users but did not find anything about that .

Would it be possible to generate the Certificate on another system and
then import the certificate with its private key into the DCM ?

thank you,
Paul

hashed with SHA256

Paul,

What OS level are you at in trying to do this.

I know with SHA256 IBM was a little behind in offering this, and even
importing CAs required a host of PTFs. If you're on anything older than
V6R1 you'll probably be out of luck.

If you are on V6R1 or higher, I would call IBM support and ask what you
need to get it to work.

Hi,

I have been able to install several web sites with HTTPS, but I am stuck
now with a new requirement of the security department of the company.
Usually, I have used DCM to generate the CSR (Certificate Signature
Request) , send it and the I received the signed certificate back for
import....

Now the security department refuses the CSR because the signature
algorithm SHA1 is deprecated and they require it to be at least SHA256.
I could not find any option in the DCM or in the API .

Does anybody know a way to issue the CSR with the required SHA256
algorithm ?

thank you,
Paul
