All CommScope products such as DAC, VUE, etc, are installed with CommScope issued PKI certificates. VTM can communicate with such devices without manual intervention. In the unlikely event that a device has been installed without a CommScope issued PKI certificate, the following procedure must be performed on VTM to acquire the installed certificate information on the device.

  1. Open a terminal window with network access to the Domain Manager (DM) host.
  2. Type ssh labuser@<DM Host IP Address> and press Enter.

    Where <DM Host IP Address> is the host IP address of DM.

  3. Type sudo -i and press Enter.
  4. Enter the root password.
  5. Type kubectl get pods -A | grep vtm and press Enter.

    The system will return the <VTM Docker Container Name> which will be used in the next command.

  6. Type kubectl -n csdm exec -it <VTM Docker Container Name> /bin/bash and press Enter.

    Where <VTM Docker Container Name> is the Docker container name retrieved in the previous step.

    At this point, you will be inside the VTM Docker container.

  7. Type cd /home/vtm/bin and press Enter.
  8. Type ./installVTMCerts -v and press Enter.
  9. Enter the IP of the VUE Controller Interface (VPS2) when prompted and press Enter.
  10. Type ./installVTMCerts and press Enter.
  11. Type exit;exit;exit to exit out of the VTM docker container and the DM host Virtual Machine.
