Setting WebSphere protocol to TLSv1.2

WebSphere® Application Server, as part of the on-premises Operations Management installation, needs to be able to import certificates from the cloud native components deployment on Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform. To do this task, WebSphere must be configured to use TLSv1.2. Use this procedure to help you verify or change this setting. If you have more than one WebGUI/DASH node, complete this procedure on each WebGUI/DASH node.

Procedure

  1. In DASH, click Console Settings > WebSphere administrative console > WebSphere Administrativeconsole.
  2. Click Security > SSL certificate and key management, and under Related Items select SSL configurations.
  3. Select the NodeDefaultSSLSettings from the list. Under Additional Properties, click Quality of protection (QoP) settings.
  4. From the protocol menu, select TLSv1.2 if it is not already selected, and save this configuration.
  5. Restart Dashboard Application Services Hub on your Operations Management on premises installation.
