London VMUG GDPR slides

Replacing vCenter SSL machine certificates in a multi-tier PKI environment - Part 2
So in part 1 we created the certificate template we needed, added the CA chain of trust to the VCSA and generated the CSR file we need in order to get the SSL certificate that we need. In this post we'll grab that CSR, issue the certificate and then install it in the VCSA. First off - connect your SCP client of choice to the VCSA, logging in as the root user.

Horizon 7.4 Agent ProTip!
This is more a reminder for me when it happens to me again. I recently deployed Horizon 7.4 for a customer using a bunch of nVidia Grid cards in Dell 7910 rack workstations - they were previously using Horizon 6, with the direct connection agent and all was good.
