Symptoms
When running the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) Wizard an error occurs when running the "Connectivity Check".
Resolution
First we need to make sure the SKLM server can at least communicate with the ML3. Either open a browser to the ML3 from the SKLM server or run the ping command to verify.
Next verify that the port is not blocked. "netstat -a" will list all of the open TCP ports.
1. SKLM 2.6 or higher
Make the following change in the properties file on the SKLM server (SKLM 3.0 defaults to TLSv2 now):
Next verify that the port is not blocked. "netstat -a" will list all of the open TCP ports.
1. SKLM 2.6 or higher
Make the following change in the properties file on the SKLM server (SKLM 3.0 defaults to TLSv2 now):
c:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\products\sklm\config\SKLMConfig.properties
TransportListener.ssl.protocols from SSL_TLS to SSL_TLSv2
After the change is made you will need to reboot the SKLM server to pick up the configuration change.
2. ML3
Next reconfigure the logical library for Library Managed Encryption (KMIP).
3. Login to the SKLM server and check for Pending client device connection certificate.
This will be on the "Welcome" screen under "Action Items"
Click on the request from the device and click "Accept and Trust". This may have already been done by customer if they have manually imported the certificate. If so you will not see the Pending
device list. Continue to step 4.
4. Run the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) Wizard.
Click on the "Connectivity Check" and we should see a "Connectivity Check Successful".
Setup Summary should finish at this point.
