I find myself in the middle of an AD and Exchange Forest migration, and one of the tasks that came up is moving the certificates from the old/source Exchange 2010 server to the new destination Exchange 2010 server. Here is how I went about moving the certificate
Request a new Certificate from your Certificate Authority (CA)
- I had to revoke my existing certificate via GoDaddy’s Control Panel
- Open the EMC and select the Server Configuration node
- Click on a free space in the Exchange Certificates tab and select New Exchange Certificate
- Enter a friendly name for your certificate , i.e. GoDaddy Exchange Cert, click Next
- Select the appropriate options here, in my case it’s the following:
- Client Access Server (Outlook Web Access)
- Client Access Server (Exchange ActiveSync)
- Client Access Server (Web Services, Outlook Anywhere, Autodiscover)
- Click Next,taking care to follow the SAN / UCC Certificate guidelines I mentioned in a previous article
- Enter your Organization info and click Browse to select a location to save your certificate request. Click Next
- Review the summary screen and click New and Finish
- Submit your Certificate request to your CA and download your certificates
Install the Certificate on your new Exchange 2010 Server
- Open the EMC and select the Server Configuration node
- Right-click your Certificate’s friendly name and select Complete Pending Request
- Browse to your downloaded certificate and click the Complete button
- Still in the EMC, right-click your certificate’s friendly name and choose to Assign Services to Certificate
- Keep to the defaults, acknowledging any prompt to overwrite an existing SMTP certificate
- Click Finish to complete the process
Import your new Certificate on the TMG 2010 Server
- Open the EMC and select the Server Configuration node
- Right-click your Certificate’s friendly name and select Export Exchange Certificate
- Select a location to save it and click Export
- Copy the exported certificate to your TMG server
- Go Start – Run – MMC
- Click File – Add/Remove Snap-in – Certificates
- Click Add, select Computer Account and click Next
- Select Local Computer – Finish – and click OK
- Right-click the Personal – Certificates node and click Import
- Click Next and browse to your saved certificate, enter your password.
- Click Next and Finish to exit the import wizard
Add the Certificate to your TMG listener
- Open up TMG Management
- Navigate to the Firewall Policy node
- Go to the Toolbox pane on the right-hand side and select Network Objects – Web Listeners – your Exchange listener
- Go to the Certificates tab – click Select Certificate – Select your imported certificate and apply your changes
- Click Start – Run - notepad %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
- Replace the old Exchange server’s IP with the new server’s internal IP, ensuring you have entries for your certificate’s common name and Autodiscover hostname
