To get your IBM i to trust your self-signed certificate, you need to import the certificate to your IBM i certificate store using the Digital Certificate Manager (DCM).

If you don't have access to the DCM, you will need to get your system admin to import it for you into the IBM i IBM i certificate store.

The default URL for DCM:

     http://hostname/QIBM/ICSS/Cert/Admin/qycucm1.ndm/main0

If you can't open this URL, talk to your IBM i IBM i system admin.
