The queen has the following files related to SSL communications and set-up:

  • Private key: Default one is /home/beehive/certs/server.key
  • Self-signed PEM certificate (that is, the base64-encoded ASCII representation of the certificate only; this is the version of the certificate that starts with "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----" and ends with "-----END CERTIFICATE-----"). The default one is /home/beehive/certs/server.cert
  • Another copy of the self-signed certificate, also in PEM format, but this time formatted in X.509 structure.
    This file may be missing from your Aster Database installation. To work around this problem, you must create the default PEM file from the server.cert file, saving it as /home/beehive/certs/server.pem.To create it, log in to the queen as root, change directories to /home/beehive/certs, and type:
    # openssl x509 -in server.cert -text >> server.pem
  • The queen’s SSL-related settings in the Aster Database queen configuration file, /home/beehive/config/procmgmtConfigs/coordinator.cfg
