5.4.6 Confirming SSL Status
You can run a SSL report using the BIDomain.BIInstance.SecurityConfiguration MBean to verify that SSL communication is operating between components.
To run the SSL report to confirm status: 1.
From the System MBean Browser, select the BIDomain.BIInstanceSecurityConfiguration MBean.
For information about how to navigate to the MBean, see Section 5.4.2,
Generating the SSL Certificates . You do not need to lock the configuration to run
the SSL report.
2. Select the Operations tab, then select the runSSLReport option.

3. To run the report, click Invoke.
The report indicating the status of SSL communication between components displays. See
Example 5–1, Sample SSL Report Output .
If the SSL ping fails, check the following:
■
Verify the target component is running.
■
Verify that the component has been restarted since SSL was enabled. SSL configuration changes require a restart to take effect.
■
Verify that the SSLEnabled attribute for the BIDomain.BIInstanceSecurityConfiguration MBean is set to true. When
changing SSL properties, both the apply and commit steps must be performed.
