Sslacceptcertfromserv

Use the sslacceptcertfromserv option to control whether the backup-archive client or the API application accept and trust the Tivoli® Storage Manager server's Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) public certificate the first time they connect. This option applies only the first time that the backup-archive client or the API application connects to the Tivoli Storage Manager server. When the SSL public certificate is accepted, future changes to the certificate are not automatically accepted, and must be manually imported to the backup-archive client. You can use this option to connect only to a Tivoli Storage Manager server V7.1.8 and later.
