SolarWinds does not have a common GUI wrapper around all of their various Tomcat style implementations of Web Servers. Nothing in the standard installations of any of them deploys anything more than a self-signed certificate. There is no easy way to download a CSR for taking to a CA. Likewise there is no easy way to import the CA certificate, the intermediate certificates, nor the site returned certificate. Even better would be to import a certificate and matching keys in case you need to do a dead box migration. For a decent example of how to do this in a console GUI on a open source box, they need only look at the certificate manipulations that are done on the InfoBlox and PaloAlto appliances. Even the OOB tool on the Dell server consoles allows you to do this.
Take a look at what passes for current documentation for completing SSL work on the current products:
DPA - http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/5975/__fav
VMAN - http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/4397/__fav
LEM - http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/2698/Exporting+and+Installing+the+SolarWinds+LEM+Console+Certificate
STM - http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/4432/Setting+up+SSL+on+Storage+Manager+with+port+re-direction+from+port+80
And the corresponding "Advanced" to get a real Root CA issued or Intermmediate CA issued Certificate; why is there no documentation specifically at all. The "Advanced" is just a referral over to Apache TomCat site and you figure out the relatives paths and other information.
Advanced SSL Setup
DPA uses Tomcat as the web server. For advanced instructions on using SSL with Tomcat, please use the following link:http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/ssl-howto.html
So, a SolarWinds open challenge for 2016,get real with SSL implementations.
Build tools into each console for manipulating, placing and enabling the cetificates and SSL.
