Description

When upgrading from 9.0.08 to 9.0.10 we've made changes to how Dbvisit Standby obtains certificate information.

These parameters are removed from the conf files - dbvnet, dbvagent and dbvserver

cert=conf/cert/pem

prikey=conf/prikey.pem

ca=conf/ca.pem

The software now looks for the certificates in the default conf locations. If, however, a client wants to use their own certificates (different names & locations), they can still manually add these settings (lines) to the config files. Existing customers with custom values in those lines should NOT have them cleared after an upgrade.

 

Steps

1. Installed 9.0.08

4. Dbvserver.conf

5. Upgrade to 9.0.10

7. Dbvnet.conf

8. Dbvserver.conf

As you can see the certificate information is no longer displayed in the conf file but rather as separate files in the default conf locations.
