vCenter 5,1 SSL problem

I have replaced all self-signed certificate with custom one (using the SSL Automation Tool). Now all components have custom certificate. When I log in to the vCenter by vSphere Client (using FQDN) I don't receive any warnings at the beginning of the logon process but later sth like: the certificate received from <ip of vCenter> was issued for <FQDN of vcenter>. I found article about vSphere 5.0 and warnings with custom SSL certificate but it has not helped.  Any clue? When I use webclient etc no warnings. Certificates are ok.

Can you be more specific on the error message you are getting (screenshot would help) and when you are getting it. Do you logon to vCenter using normal client and web client the same way ? For example, do you logon with IP address or FQDN ?
