Deploying certificates for a credentials broker when the master server is an appliance

Some cloud providers require that you use a credentials broker for authentication with their service.

To use a credentials broker to authenticate with your cloud provider, you need to deploy certificate files on the NetBackup master server before you can configure the NetBackup Virtual Appliance Cloud Catalyst.

For appliance software version 3.2, see the Veritas NetBackup Cloud Administrator's Guide for details on deploying certificates on the appliance master server.
