Issue
The profiles "EV SSL Root CA" and "EV SSL Subordinate CA" are not in the list of extension profiles to choose from when creating a CA
Resolution
To correct this, you must edit the Extension Profiles for those selections.
1. Access the RCM Administrative UI.
2. Go to the "System Configuration" workbench -> Extension Profiles
3. Select the profile named "EV SSL Root CA", click on Edit.
4. Change the Profile Type from "End entity" to "CA", then click Save.
Do the same thing with the profile "EV SSL Sub-ordinate CA".
Now when you go to create a new CA, at the jurisdiction configuration page during it's creation, in the Sections drop down, select Extension Profiles.
Select all profiles in the list (or only those you will need), click on Save and continue.
Select the extensions profile "EV SSL Root CA" or "EV SSL Subordinate CA" when creating your CA.
