Uploading a Valid Certificate to vSphere Replication Results in a Warning

When you upload a custom certificate to the vSphere Replication appliance, you see a warning even if the certificate is valid.

Problem

When you use the virtual appliance management interface (VAMI) in Internet Explorer to upload certificates to the vSphere Replication appliance, you see a certificate error:

The certificate installed with warnings. Remote VRM systems with the 'Accept only SSL certificate signed by a 
trusted CA' option enabled may be unable to connect to this site for the following reason: The certificate was not issued 
for use with the given hostname: vr_appliance_hostname.

Solution

Ignore this error, or connect to the VAMI by using a supported browser other than Internet Explorer.
