Replacing SSL certificate for HPSMH

This is for replacing the SSL certificate used in HP SMH aka "System Management Homepage", especially after a few round of SSL issues coming from openssl to SSLv3.

The steps are as follows

Step 1
- Logon to HPSMH
- Click from the menu, "Settings" -> "Security" -> "Local Server Certificate"
- Fill up the necessary fields. (Alternative Names should be FQDN)

Step 2
- Logon to the server
- copy the content in req_cr.pem file. (should be in C:\hp\sslshare by default i think)

Step 3
- Register the CSR with your CA to obtain the final X509 certificate (Base 64 encoded in PEM format)

Step 4
- Replace the new certificate over the existing cert.pem (if any).
- Restart HPSMH service.
