Obtain the Needed Certificate - Analytics Database - Teradata Vantage

Typically, a certificate can be acquired from the site security administrator. For systems running Linux, with OpenSSL installed, some or all of these certificates can be found in the /etc/site/ssl/certs directory. Do the following to obtain a certificate.

1. Go to the directory where certificates are stored, for example: /etc/site/ssl/certs.
2. List the files. The files look similar to:

   dlopldap:~ # cd /etc/ssl/certs
   dlopldap:/etc/ssl/certs # ls

   The files that end in a non-numeric suffix are certificate files. On this system, all certificates are stored in PEM format.
3. Use the OpenSSL x509 command, with a -subject option, to examine the subject of each certificate. Run the OpenSSL x509 -subject common to each of the .pem files until it finds a file containing a certificate with a subject that matches the missing certificate.

   The subject shown in bold text in the example (subject= /C=US/O=VeriSign, Inc./OU=Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority) matches the subject of the missing certificate identified in the search shown in Using OpenSSL to Identify the Certificates Not Verified.
