When using the HPE SSMC Administrator Console to first connect to some storage systems, it might be necessary to use the Administrator Console to install a self-signed security certificate on the HPE SSMC server before the storage system can be connected.

Tip: Access to the HPE SSMC Administrator Console requires an HPE SSMC administrator user account.

Procedure
