fix #6512: certificate management: document reverting a custom certificate
The certificate management chapter explains how to upload a custom certificate, but not how to go back to the default one. This is especially needed if a broken certificate made the web interface unreachable, so that the 'Delete Custom Certificate' button cannot be used anymore. Add a section for it, with the button in the web interface and the 'pvenode cert delete --restart 1' command as fallback, which deletes the custom certificate and key and restarts pveproxy, so that it uses the default node certificate again.

Revert to the Default Certificate
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To switch back from a custom certificate to the default certificate signed by
|
||||
the cluster CA, delete the custom certificate of the node with the 'Delete
|
||||
Custom Certificate' button under `Node -> Certificates`.
|
||||
|
||||
If the web interface is not reachable anymore, for example after uploading a
|
||||
broken certificate, run the following command on the node instead:
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
root@proxmox:~# pvenode cert delete --restart 1
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
This deletes `/etc/pve/local/pveproxy-ssl.pem` and
|
||||
`/etc/pve/local/pveproxy-ssl.key` and restarts `pveproxy`, which then uses the
|
||||
default certificate in `/etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.pem` again.
