Prerequisites
Opal is installed, following the instructions described in Opal Installation Guide.
HTTPS Configuration
Opal ensures that HTTPS is always available by creating a default certificate (if none can be found) when Opal is started. A proper Opal HTTPS configuration requires to specify an authentic certificate from your organization. To achieve that, use the Opal keystore command.
First open Opal command line through ssh (see instructions).
Then execute keystore command for importing private key and corresponding certificate:
keystore --alias https --action import --private FILE --certificate FILE
Where:
- the alias name must be https,
- FILE arguments are respectively the path to private key file and corresponding certificate file both in pem format.
Restart Opal to make this change effective.
