SC5020 cert expiring

Hi folks, our SC5020 (running 7.4.21.4) recently alerted that the certificate will expire in 14 days.  Following a guide, I went to Storage Center settings and clicked on the "Generate or Import a New SSL Certificate" link.  I select the "Generate a new self-signed certificate" option and press Ok.  I get a red colored error bar with "Please include the hostname or IP address with which u are currently connected to the Storage Center".  The box already contains all the IP's and hostnames however, so not sure how to get passed it.  Thx for your time !  Cheers.

    Update:  I was able to renew the cert by just entering IP addresses with no hostnames.  Thx all !

    Hello,

     

    Have you tried Clear Browser Cache or Try a Different Browser?

    Occasionally, cached sessions or browser quirks can interfere with the certificate generation process.

     

    You may also take a look at this KB that may help:
