    [Fri Dec 26 09:22:55 2014] [warn] RSA server  certificate
    CommonName (CN) `10.0.255.176' does NOT match server name!?
    
    Impact:
    Users will not get PowerVC token.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • powervc-get-token command failed because  Alternative Names for
    PowerVC generated certificates are incorrectly including IP
    addresses as DNS entries rather than as IP entries. Due to that
    certificate validation on connections using the IP address may
    result in an error. connections using the hostname will not be
    impacted. A code fix will be available in future release.
    
    Platforms:
    All supported PowerVC Platforms
    
    Versions:
    Power Virtualization Center 1.2.2
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
