OpsCenter daemon (opscenterd) SSL configuration options
SSL configuration options available in opscenterd.conf:
-
[agents] agent_certfile
The location of the certfile sent to the DataStax Agents when using SSL communication between OpsCenter and the DataStax Agents. The default location is /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/agentKeyStore.der for package installations and install_location/ssl/agentKeyStore.der for tarball installations.
-
[agents] agent_keyfile
The location of the keyfile sent to the DataStax Agents when using SSL communication between OpsCenter and the DataStax Agents. The default location is /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/agentKeyStore for package installations and install_location/ssl/agentKeyStore for tarball installations.
Do not use the
agent_keyfilewhen manually generating and deploying keys. -
[agents] agent_keyfile_raw
The raw keystore file stored in the Java keystore from agent_keyfile. This parameter is required only when configuring high availability, so that the secondary OpsCenter instance can communicate with the primary OpsCenter instance. The failover opscenterd processes on the secondary OpsCenter instance use this key to establish a STOMP connection to the primary opscenterd instance.
-
[agents] ssl_certfile
The location of the SSL certificate used for SSL traffic between OpsCenter and the DataStax Agents. The default location is /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/opscenter.der for package installations and install_location/ssl/opscenter.der for tarball installations.
-
[agents] ssl_keyfile
The location of the SSL key file used for SSL traffic between OpsCenter and the DataStax Agents. The default location is /var/lib/opscenter/ssl/opscenter.key for package installations and install_location/ssl/opscenter.key for tarball installations.
-
[agents] use_ssl
Specifies whether traffic between OpsCenter and the DataStax Agents should use SSL. The default value is False.
-
[webserver] ssl_certfile
The location where the SSL certificate resides. This option requires
ssl_keyfileand optionallyssl_portto also be set. -
[webserver] ssl_keyfile
The location where the SSL keyfile resides. This option requires
ssl_certfileand optionallyssl_portto also be set. -
[webserver] ssl_port
The port on which to serve SSL traffic. The default port is 8443.
-
[webserver] ssl_redirect
Determines whether or not to open up the non-secure port when enabling HTTPS for the webserver. The default behavior redirects HTTP traffic to the HTTPS port. The default value is True.
Cluster SSL configuration options

Agent configuration options
SSL configuration options available for agents in address.yaml:
-
monitored_ssl_keystore
The SSL keystore location for the monitored cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
monitored_ssl_keystore: /etc/dse/conf/.keystore -
monitored_ssl_keystore_password
The SSL keystore password for the monitored cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
monitored_ssl_keystore_password: keystore-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
monitored_ssl_truststore
The SSL truststore location for the monitored cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
monitored_ssl_truststore: /etc/dse/conf/.truststore -
monitored_ssl_truststore_password
The SSL truststore password for the monitored cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
monitored_ssl_truststore_password: truststore-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
opscenter_ssl_keystore
The SSL keystore location that the DataStax Agents use to connect to opscenterd. Example:
opscenter_ssl_keystore: /etc/opscenter/conf/.keystore -
opscenter_ssl_keystore_password
The SSL keystore password that the agents use to connect to opscenterd. Example:
opscenter_ssl_keystore_password: keystore-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
opscenter_ssl_truststore
The path to the truststore file that the agents use to connect to opscenterd. Example:
opscenter_ssl_truststore: /etc/opscenter/conf/.truststore -
opscenter_ssl_truststore_password
The SSL truststore password that the agents use to connect to opscenterd. Default: Uses the keystore password if an SSL truststore password is not specified. Example:
opscenter_ssl_truststore_password: trust-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
opscenter_ssl_strict_subject_validation
Instructs the agent to reject certificates from opscenterd when the certificate subject does not match the server’s ip. This option is false by default, which means the agent attempts subject validation first. If that fails, the agent logs a warning and retries the connection without subject validation. In a later version of OpsCenter, the default will change to true. Example:
opscenter_ssl_strict_subject_validation: true -
ssl_keystore
The SSL keystore location for the storage cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
ssl_keystore: /etc/dse/conf/.keystore -
ssl_keystore_password
The SSL keystore password for the storage cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
ssl_keystore_password: keystore-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
ssl_truststore
The SSL truststore location for the storage cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
ssl_truststore: /etc/dse/conf/.truststore -
ssl_truststore_password
The SSL truststore password for the storage cluster that agents use to connect to CQL. Example:
ssl_truststore_password: truststore-pass[This field may be encrypted for additional security.] -
use_ssl
Whether or not to use SSL communication between the agent and opscenterd. Affects both the STOMP connection and the agent HTTP server. Corresponds to [agents].use_ssl in opscenterd.conf. Setting this option to true turns on SSL connections. Example:
use_ssl: true
