Description Germano Veit Michel 2017-01-27 06:44:29 UTC
Description of problem:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/paged/administration-guide/appendix-d-red-hat-virtualization-and-ssl

Step 1 is the CA (or a concatenation of CA+SubCAs). This is not clear and is very important, otherwise it wont work. In fact, it looks like the Certs on Step 1 and Step 3 are the same file. They are not.

It is not obvious to everyone that /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors contains the CA.

I suggest to change

# cp YOUR-3RD-PARTY-CERT.pem /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors

to

# cp YOUR-3RD-PARTY-CA-CHAIN.pem /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors
