ONTAP 8.3.1 Security Certificate Error: Cannot store certificate

[AJHunt18]

Hi NetApp Experts and Users,

I am renewing our Storage Digital Certificates and it went smoothly with our cluster and vservers. I just had this issue with our storage nodes, where I cannot create or renew the certificate because it is giving me an error: command failed, cannot store certificate.

We are running on Clustered Data ONTAP 8.3.1. Before it was upgraded, we have valid certificates of the nodes, but when the OS was upgraded to 8.3.1, that's when we cannot create certificates for our storage nodes. Now their certificates are still expired.

Can someone please help me with this? I would really appreciate it.

Thank you!

Regards,

AJ
