Updating or Adding a New SSH Public Key

Should the need arise, you can add SSH public keys for the opc and oracle users to the compute nodes associated with a database deployment on MySQL Cloud Service.

After you add the public key, you can provide the matching private key to connect as the opc user.

To add an SSH public key:
  1. Open the MySQL Cloud Service console.

    For detailed instructions, see Accessing MySQL Cloud Service Console.

  2. From the Menu icon menu for the database deployment, select SSH Access.
    The Add New Key overlay is displayed with its Key value field displaying the most recent SSH public key.
  3. Specify the new public key using one of the following methods:
    • Select Upload a new SSH Public Key value and click Choose File to select a file that contains the public key.
    • Select Key value. Delete the current key value and paste the new public key into the text area. Make sure the value does not contain line breaks or end with a line break.
  4. Click Add New Key.

You can also add SSH public keys to one or more deployments on the SSH Access page. For information, see MySQL Cloud Service SSH Access Page.
