Procedure
- From the Environment page, select a product card and click on the vertical ellipses.
- Click Replace Certificate.
- From the Current Certificate, click Next.
- Select a Certificate from the drop-down menu and click Next.
- Select a certificate and review the certificate summary, and click Next.
- To replace a VMware Identity Manager certificate, you must re-trust the products that are already configured. Select the product instance here and click Next.
By default, all the products are listed under the Re-Trust Product Certificate wizard.
- (Optional) Enable the Opt-in for Snapshot checkbox.

vRealize Business for Cloud,
VMware Identity Manager, and
vRealize Network Insight.
If the replace certificate request has failed and you have selected to take a snapshot, then you can set the revertToSnapshot flag to true and then submit the failed request to rollback the operaton.
