Hi levtech1

Does this help -- if you just save it from the browser, you can open the file with notepad

Let me know, Thanks

Hi Angelo,

thank you for the reply back but that didnt work, i found the solution by doing the below from any CVM:

python
import sslprint ssl.get_server_certificate(('PrismVIP', 9440), ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)

Just as a quick heads up to anyone else that finds this, as of writing this reply the above command doesn’t work. I get a syntax error:

>>> import sslprint ssl.get_server_certificate(('PrismVIP',9440),ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    import sslprint ssl.get_server_certificate(('PrismVIP',9440),ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I’m not sure how to solve the problem, I just wanted to let others know that this solution no longer is valid.

Hi Martin Edelius

try changing PROTOCOL_TLSv1 to PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2

Let me know

What you are missing is the import ssl library before running the import sslprint. The steps would be -

Log on to one of the CVMs (Controller VMs) in the cluster with SSH.
Get the virtual IP address of the cluster.
Enter into the Python prompt.
Import SSL library.

>>> import ssl

Print the SSL certificate.

>>> print ssl.get_server_certificate(('cluster-VIP',9440),ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2)
