The SSL Certificates in xCAT
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
The xCAT daemon on the management node and service node listens on a SSL socket on port 3001, the communications on the SSL socket include:
|
|
|
|
1. the xCAT requests from xCAT Clients
|
|
2. the xCAT requests forwarded from other xCAT daemons, for example, the requests forwarded between xCAT daemons on management node and service nodes
|
|
3. some special xCAT requests from compute nodes, such as ``getcredentials``, ``getpostscript``, ``litefile``, etc.
|
|
|
|
xCAT creates 1 CA certificate and 2 credentials (private key and certificate pairs):
|
|
|
|
1. xCAT CA certificate(ca.pem):
|
|
|
|
* a self-signed certificate used as Certificate Authority in xcatd SSL communication;
|
|
* generated by ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/scripts/setup-xcat-ca.sh`` script on xCAT installation;
|
|
* will be generated (or updated) on xCAT management node when:
|
|
* install or update xCAT when "/etc/xcat/ca" directory does not exist
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -f|--force``
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -c|--credentials``
|
|
* files on management node:
|
|
* ``/etc/xcat/ca/ca-cert.pem``
|
|
* ``/etc/xcat/cert/ca.pem`` ,copied by ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/scripts/setup-server-cert.sh``
|
|
* ``/root/.xcat/ca.pem`` ,copied by ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/scripts/setup-local-client.sh``
|
|
* file on service node: ``/root/.xcat/ca.pem``
|
|
* distribution path:
|
|
**/etc/xcat/cert/ca.pem (MN)** ===(run ``xcatconfig`` command)===> **/install/postscripts/_xcat/ca.pem (MN)** ===(node provision/updatenode)==> **/xcatpost/_xcat/ca.pem (SN and CN)** ==(run "servicenode" postscript)==> **/root/.xcat/ca.pem (SN)**
|
|
|
|
2. xCAT server credential(server-cred.pem):
|
|
|
|
* a concatenation of server private key and certificate(signed with xCAT CA certificate)
|
|
* generated by ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/scripts/setup-server-cert.sh`` on xCAT installation;
|
|
* will be generated (or updated) on xCAT management node when:
|
|
* install or update xCAT when ``/etc/xcat/cert`` directory does not exist
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -f|--force``
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -c|--credentials``
|
|
* file on management node: ``/etc/xcat/cert/server-cred.pem``
|
|
* file on service node: ``/etc/xcat/cert/server-cred.pem``
|
|
* distribution path:
|
|
**/etc/xcat/cert/server-cred.pem (MN)** ==(run ``xcatserver`` script called by ``servicenode`` postscript)===> **/etc/xcat/cert/server-cred.pem(SN)**
|
|
|
|
3. xCAT client credential(client-cred.pem):
|
|
|
|
* a concatenation of client private key and certificate (signed with xCAT CA certificate)
|
|
* generated by ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/scripts/setup-local-client.sh`` on xCAT installation
|
|
* will be generated (or updated) on xCAT management node when:
|
|
* install or update xCAT when ``/root/.xcat/client-key.pem`` does not exist;
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -f|--force``
|
|
* or run ``xcatconfig -c|--credentials``
|
|
* file on management node: ``/root/.xcat/client-cred.pem``
|
|
* file on service node: ``/root/.xcat/client-cred.pem``
|
|
* distribution path:
|
|
**/root/.xcat/client-cred.pem (MN)** ===(run ``xcatclient`` script called by ``servicenode`` postscript")===> **/root/.xcat/client-cred.pem(SN)**
