Additional Web Servers and HTTPS. CSR (certificate signing request) is generated on which server?

I've been asked to generate a CSR for our environment and we're using an additional web server. Would i want to generate the CSR from the AWS, or Primary Orion Polling engine I downloaded the scalability package from? I assume the AWS, however it looks like i'd have to install IIS manager, and i'd just like a confirmation before i go purchase something i assume i'm doing correctly.

Certificate should be for each Web Server front end that users will connect through.

You can use Phase 1 and Phase 2 (skip phase 3) from my guide for setting up and enabling HTTPS. I use the Microsoft Management Console to generate certificates, which allows for SHA256. If you use IIS Manager to create a Domain Certificate, it will be SHA1 only.
