Procedure 3.5.  Generate SSL certificate for the new CDS

1. Generate the CDS SSL key, using the following command:

   # openssl genrsa -out ssl_cds02.key 2048
   

2. Generate a certificate request using the openssl command:

   # openssl req -new -key ssl_cds02.key -out ssl_cds02.csr

   The tool will prompt you for further information, and then create an output file called ssl_cds02.csr.
3. Use the CSR file to create a SSL certificate for the new CDS instance with the following command:

   # openssl x509 -req -days 365 -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -in ssl_cds02.csr -out ssl_cds02.crt

Procedure 3.6. Prepare the answers file and generate RPM for the new CDS

1. Change directory to the answers file created in Procedure 3.4, “Editing the Answers File”

   # cd /etc/rhui/myanswersfile

2. Edit the /etc/rhui/myanswersfile answers file using your preferred text editor to include the correct details under [cds-2].

   [cds-2]
   rpm_name: rh-cds2-config
   hostname: cds02.example.com
   ssl_cert: ssl_cds02.crt
   ssl_key: ssl_cds02.key
   

3. To execute the file and create the configuration RPMs, change to root user and run the rhui-installer command:

   # rhui-installer /etc/rhui/myanswersfile

4. Finally, install /tmp/rhui/rh-cds2-config-2.1-2.el6.noarch.rpm on cds02.example.com.

   # yum install /tmp/rhui/rh-cds2-config-2.1-2.el6.noarch.rpm
