Server 3.0.2 system, configure one of the following communication
protocols:
https
To use https as the communication protocol between the ESX Server
system and the backup proxy system, copy the self-generated SSL
certificate from the ESX Server system to the backup proxy system, and
then install the certificate on the backup proxy system.
Note: https the default communication protocol used by the ARCserve
VMware Configuration Tool and the ca_vcbpopulatedb utility. https lets CA
ARCserve Backup communication between VCB Backup Proxy and the ESX
Server system or the VirtualCenter Server system.
You can find the SSL certificate (labeled rui.crt) from the following
directory on the ESX Server system:
/etc/vmware/ssl/rui.crt
To install the SSL certificate, right-click the object and select Install from
the pop-up menu.
Note: The host name assigned in the SSL certificate must match the name
of the ESX Server system specified when running the ca_vcbpopulatedb
command line utility. If the name does not match or if the host name is
missing in the SSL certificate then the following message appears "Bad
Server Certificate, The certificate CN name does not match the passed
