Set up an Imported Certificate from Horizon Console

As an alternative method for importing certificates, use the Certificate Management feature in Horizon Console to import a certificate in .pem or .pfx format.

Prerequisites

• The Root CA Certificate should already be installed in “Trusted Root Certification Authorities”.
• You must have the Manage Certificates privilege to perform Import and Generate CSR operations. If you do not have this privilege, you must assign it. See "Manage Custom Roles" in the Horizon 8 Administration documentation.
• Certificate file size should be no more than 250kB.

Procedure

1. From Horizon Console, select Certificate Management.
2. Select PFX or PEM, then click Browse to locate a valid, signed certificate.
3. If importing a PFX certificate, enter a password for the file.
4. Click Import. The latest version of the certificate is imported.
5. Restart the Connection Server to reflect the imported TLS certificate.
   Note:

   • If you try to import an invalid certificate the import will fail with an appropriate error message. Check the logs for more information.
