手順

1. Download the certificate by logging in to the ILMT or BigFix Inventory server and navigating to Management > Server Settings.

3. Paste the full downloaded ILMT or BigFix Inventory server certificate content into the PEM Certificate field (including banners).
4. Select the Validate Stores/Certificates related link.
5. To create the Java Key Store file using the IBM certificate file, open the command prompt on your computer and navigate to the folder that contains the JRE keytool.
6. Execute the following commands:

   keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias <Certificate alias> -file <Certificate file path> -keystore IBM_Server.keystore -storetype jks
   keytool -list -v -keystore IBM_Server.keystore

   These commands generate the IBM_Server.keystore file.

7. Return to the ServiceNow AI Platform, navigate to System Definition > Certificates and create a certificate (Java Key Store).
8. Upload the IBM_Server.keystore file that you generated as an attachment to the certificate record.
9. Select the Validate Stores/Certificates related link.
10. Navigate to System Security > Protocol Profiles and create a new protocol profile using the Java Key Store certificate that you created.
