working with certificate issues

 It’s a great command reference when you working with certificate issues

 

And I will add this section when you working with STS certificate:
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/79248 - Check STS Certificate expiry on VCSA & Windows VC

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/76719 - Replace STS Certificate on VCSA

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/79263 - Replace STS Certificate on Windows VC


If you need to get a quick summary for all Cert use a bellow command

#for store in $(/usr/lib/vmware-vmafd/bin/vecs-cli store list | grep -v TRUSTED_ROOT_CRLS); do echo "[*] Store :" $store; /usr/lib/vmware-vmafd/bin/vecs-cli entry list --store $store --text | grep -ie "Alias" -ie "Not After";done

Integration with vCloud Director failing after NSXT upgrade to 4.1.2.0 certificate expired

  Issue Clarification: after upgrade from 3.1.3 to 4.1.2.0 observed certificate to be expired related to various internal services.   Issue Verification: after Upgrade from 3.1.3 to 4.1.2.0 observed certificate to be expired related to various internal services.   Root Cause Identification: >>we confirmed the issue to be related to the below KB NSX alarms indicating certificates have expired or are expiring (94898)   Root Cause Justification:   There are two main factors that can contribute to this behaviour: NSX Managers have many certificates for internal services. In version NSX 3.2.1, Cluster Boot Manager (CBM) service certificates were incorrectly given a validity period of 825 days instead of 100 years. This was corrected to 100 years in NSX 3.2.3. However any environment originally installed on NSX 3.2.1 will have the internal CBM Corfu certs expire after 825 regardless of upgrade to the fixed version or not. On NSX-T 3.2.x interna...

Calculate how much data can be transferred in 24 hours based on link speed in data center

  In case you are planning for migration via DIA or IPVPN link and as example you have 200Mb stable speed so you could calculate using the below formula. (( 200Mb /8)x60x60x24) /1024/1024 = 2TB /per day In case you have different speed you could replace the 200Mb by any rate to calculate as example below. (( 5 00Mb /8)x60x60x24) /1024/1024 =  5.15TB  /per day So approximate each 100Mb would allow around 1TB per day.
