My company and I recently (2 days ago) setup two PS6000's. Through the Group Manager java applet, I altered the administration settings to only allow secure connections to be established, and this was going fine for about a day or so.

As of today however, I'm unable to establish an encrypted connection to either of the PS6000's and I'm unsure as to why. The only error display is "Connection to the server could not be established".

One of the PS6000's I haven't configured to only allow secure connections, and can still access it just fine. However the second PS6000 for which I did mark secure connections only I'm unable to connect to.

I can however connect to the iSCSI volume hosted on the problem PS6000 from my ubuntu server, and write to the volume just fine. The only issue is that I can't establish a secure connection.

We have a Cisco 2960s 24port switch to which our PS6000s are connected to, and I'm wondering if that could somehow be causing part of the problem.

 

edit 1: I consoled into the PS6000, and enabled insecure web access, and I can access the group manager console. While looking through the logs I couldn't find anything indicating a secure connection failure. Very strange.....

 

edit 2: Not sure what help this will be for diagnosing the issue, but ssh access works so I would assume that means cryptographic based operations are functional.
