Manage SSL in ET

The Manage SSL action allows you to control the SSL encryption for ET cluster services (Docker Registry, HTTP Mirror, Grafana).

Key points when enabling SSL for an ET cluster:

  • Although some ET services have their own HTTPS settings (HTTPS listener block), it is strongly recommended to use Manage SSL cluster action rather than configuring services individually.

  • SSL certificates should be trusted by the ET cluster host(s).

  • Do not upgrade an ET cluster with SSL enabled. Disable SSL first.

The action execution process and results are available on the Jobs page. During the execution of the Manage SSL action, ADCM reconfigures required services and restarts, so no explicit cluster restart is required after the action.
