  1. Go to the machine where DataView is installed and add FTA Activation Service hostname (FQDN) and IP address in the
    hosts
     file located at
    C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
     folder.
  2. Ensure to create the certificate for FTA Activation Service in the same CA directory where certificates for FTASecurity are generated.
  3. Go to the machine where DataView is installed and execute the following command to generate the certificates with FTA Activation Service hostname (FQDN).
    IMPORTANT:
    The following command is a single line command that appears in two lines. Please combine these two lines into a single line command and then execute it.
    create-certificate.cmd <FTA_Activation_Service_hostname (FQDN)> <ca-secret-password> <key-password>
<trust-password>
    IMPORTANT:
    Do not use the word “password” as a password for generating keys and certificates.
    The following table contains a list of the supported special characters that can be used to create a password for the certificates:
