serverCertificate

Specifies a certificate chain for DataSync to authenticate with your object storage system if the system uses a private or self-signed certificate authority (CA). You must specify a single .pem file with a full certificate chain (for example, file:///home/user/.ssh/object_storage_certificates.pem).

The certificate chain might include:

  • The object storage system's certificate

  • All intermediate certificates (if there are any)

  • The root certificate of the signing CA

You can concatenate your certificates into a .pem file (which can be up to 32768 bytes before base64 encoding). The following example cat command creates an object_storage_certificates.pem file that includes three certificates:

cat object_server_certificate.pem intermediate_certificate.pem ca_root_certificate.pem > object_storage_certificates.pem

To use this parameter, configure ServerProtocol to HTTPS.

Updating this parameter doesn't interfere with tasks that you have in progress.
