Updating SSH Keys for User omm

Scenario

During cluster installation, the system automatically generates the SSH public key and private key for user omm to establish the trust relationship between nodes. After the cluster is installed, if the original keys are accidentally disclosed or new keys are used, the system administrator can perform the following operations to manually change the keys.

Prerequisites

• The cluster has been stopped.
• No other management operations are being performed.

Procedure

1. Log in as user omm to the node whose SSH keys need to be replaced.

   If the node is a Manager management node, run the following command on the active management node.

2. Run the following command to disable user logout upon system timeout:

   TMOUT=0

   

   After the operations in this section are complete, run the TMOUT=Timeout interval command to restore the timeout interval in a timely manner. For example, TMOUT=600 indicates that a user is logged out if the user does not perform any operation within 600 seconds.

3. Run the following command to generate a key for the node:
   • If the node is a Manager management node, run the following command:

     sh ${CONTROLLER_HOME}/sbin/update-ssh-key.sh

   • If the node is a non-Manager management node, run the following command:

     sh ${NODE_AGENT_HOME}/bin/update-ssh-key.sh

   If Succeed to update ssh private key. is displayed when the preceding command is executed, the SSH key is generated successfully.

4. Run the following command to copy the public key of the node to the active management node:

   scp ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub oms_ip:${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub_bak

   oms_ip: indicates the IP address of the active management node.

   Enter the password of user omm to copy the files.

5. Log in to the active management node as user omm.
6. Run the following command to disable user logout on system timeout:

   TMOUT=0

7. Run the following command to switch the directory:

   cd ${HOME}/.ssh

8. Run the following command to add new public keys:

   cat id_rsa.pub_bak >> authorized_keys

9. Run the following command to move the temporary public key file, for example, /tmp.

   mv -f id_rsa.pub_bak /tmp

10. Copy the authorized_keys file of the active management node to the other nodes in the cluster:

    scp authorized_keys node_ip:/${HOME}/.ssh/authorized_keys

    node_ip: indicates the IP address of another node in the cluster. Multiple IP addresses are not supported.

11. Run the following command to confirm private key replacement without entering the password:

    ssh node_ip

    node_ip: indicates the IP address of another node in the cluster. Multiple IP addresses are not supported.

12. Log in to the FusionInsight Manager. On the Homepage page, click > Start to start the cluster.
