have an SSL certificate .pem provided by my organization and I need to configure it in Splunk HF. Please assist with any document referrals or steps. I have already gone through the Splunk documentation below but had no luck

As I mentioned, I already have the sslcertificate.pem file and have followed the steps outlined in the section 'Install and configure certificates on the Splunk Enterprise management port", but not working.

Hi @msmadhu 

When you say it isnt working, is Splunk starting up but you are not seeing your certificate presented? Or are there errors starting up Splunk?

I would have a look at $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log for any errors relating to SSL as this might give some direction on where to go next.

Feel free to post some logs here for us to look at to try and help further.

Please let me know how you get on and consider accepting this answer or adding karma this answer if it has helped.
Regards

Will

Which part(s) of that document are you struggling to understand?  At what point do the steps not work for you?
