Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
administrator uses the command line interface (CLI) to create key IDs and key passphrases. The administrator can then share them with the
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
user to encrypt and decrypt files.
You can run the key ring commands if you have the privileges to update files in the agent location. A PGP configuration file is created when you install the agent. The PGP configuration file consists of the properties that lists the location of the public key ring and the secret key ring. You must update the properties to change the location of the existing key ring. For more information about updating the properties, see the
Administrator
help.
The default location of the PGP configuration file is
<agent location>/apps/MassIngestionRuntime/<latest version no>/conf/pgp-configuration.properties
.
Use the
createKeyRing
command to create a key ring in the key ring location that is defined in the PGP configuration file.
To create key IDs and add them to the key ring, use the
createKeyPair
command. A key ID consists of a public key and a private key. To import public keys from different partners or use an existing key pair and import it to the current agent key ring location, use the
