Enabling HTTPS

You can enable or disable Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) support in OpsCenter.

opscenterd.conf 

The location of the opscenterd.conf file depends on the type of installation:

Location Package Installer (GUI or text mode) Tarball
Service No-service
/etc/opscenter/opscenterd.conf X X    
install_location/conf/opscenterd.conf     X X

Procedure

  1. Open the OpsCenter configuration file, opscenterd.conf.
  2. Scroll to the [webserver] section.

    This snippet from opscenterd.conf shows the [webserver] section that you change:

    
[webserver]
port = 8888
interface = 127.0.0.1
# The following settings can be used to enable ssl support for the opscenter
# web application. Change these values to point to the ssl certificate and key
# that you wish to use for your OpsCenter install, as well as the port you would like
# to serve ssl traffic from.
#ssl_keyfile = /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/opscenter.key
#ssl_certfile = /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/opscenter.pem
#ssl_port = 8443
  3. Remove the comment markers (#) in front of ssl_keyfile, ssl_certfile, and ssl_port.
    You can use the default values for the ssl_keyfile and ssl_certfile or replace them with the path to your own private and public certificates.
  4. Save opscenterd.conf and restart OpsCenter.
