Automate certificate management on IBM i using REST APis
2024-11-18, 10:00–13:00, Sterrennacht

With more and more systems having TLS encryption enabled, the manual task of monitoring certificate expiration and renewing


Certificates can be very time-consuming. Often administrators forget to renew a certificate in time and loose connectivity to the system
due to expired certificates. Recently introduced REST APIs offer an option to partly or full automate the certificate lifecyle
management. This session will explain in detail the available REST APIs and use RPG as the programming language to
perform the certificate management tasks.
