Xencenter connection fail with Windows 10
# Xencenter could not connect to some of my xenservers today. This is an issue with Windows 10 and 512 bit certificates for old version of xenserver.
# My recently built servers have 1024 bit certs. My old servers that have been upgraded several times had 512 bit certs from original installations.
# All of my servers are running 6.5 so the generate_ssl_cert is already set to 1024 default. If you are using older version, modify the script.
# view strength of certificate. If it is 512 it needs to be rebuilt to allow connection from Windows 10.
openssl x509 -in /etc/xensource/xapi-ssl.pem -text
mv /etc/xensource/xapi-ssl.pem xapi-ssl.pem.orig
# By default xenserver uses the ip address for container name on certificate
/opt/xensource/libexec/generate_ssl_cert /etc/xensource/xapi-ssl.pem 10.1.2.42
