I've got a vSphere 5.5 environment with Nexus 1000v configured, which I'm tasked to upgrade to vSphere 6.5.
Have anyone used the "MigrationTool_Nexus1000v_to_VMWare_VDS" tool that you can download from VMware?
I'm having a problem that the SSL certificate won't verify, which is because it's the default self signed one from when it was installed. I'm looking for a way to get around this; anyone know how to ignore the SSL validity check? The error message is "simple":

I tried to import the certificate into the windows server I was running the migration tool on, both to the personal store, the trusted root certificate authorities and to third-party root certification authorities, but still the same error. Does python27 on windows keep it's own SSL keystore?
