Updating the certificate for backup storage

When you register a Backup Gateway in Acronis Cyber Backup Cloud or Acronis Cyber Backup, they exchange certificates that are valid for three years. One and a half months before expiration, you will be alerted about the expiring certificate in the admin panel.

Prerequisites

  • The backup storage cluster is created and registered in the Cloud Management Panel, as described in Provisioning backup storage space.
  • Ensure that two-factor authentication (2FA) is disabled for your partner account. You can also disable it for a specific user within a 2FA-enabled tenant, as described in Acronis Cyber Cloud documentation, and specify the user credentials.

To update the certificate

  1. On the Storage services > Backup storage screen, go to the Settings tab, and then click Certificate.
  2. Specify the credentials of a partner account in the cloud or of an organization administrator on the local management server.
  3. Click Update.
  4. On all nodes included into the backup storage cluster, restart the service:

    # systemctl restart vstorage-abgw
