Manage CA Nodes

This topic contains information about certificate authority (CA) nodes, including how to view and edit the CA node configuration, and how to view the health information for the CA node.

View and Edit the CA Node Configuration

A certificate authority (CA) node’s configuration determines how the node performs and behaves on the network.

Only administrators can change a node’s configuration. If you've got user permissions, then you can view a node’s configuration settings. See CA Node Attributes.

1. Go to the console and select the Nodes tab.
2. In the Nodes tab, go to the Nodes table, locate the CA node that you want configuration information for, and click the node’s More Actions button.
3. The configuration option is determined by your permissions. If you're an administrator, locate and click Edit Configuration. If you're a user, locate and click View.
   The Configure dialog is displayed.
4. If you're an administrator, then modify the node’s settings as needed.
5. Click Submit to save the configuration changes, or click X to close the Configure dialog.
6. Restart the node to apply any changes that you made.

View Health Information for a CA Node

You can check a certificate authority (CA) node’s metrics to see how the node is performing on the blockchain network. This information helps you discover and diagnose performance problems.

The Health pane displays the node’s performance metrics: CPU utilization and memory utilization.

1. Go to the console and select the Nodes tab.
2. In the Nodes tab, click the name of the CA node you want to see health information for.
   The Node Information page is displayed.
3. Click the Health pane to view the node’s performance metrics.
   If the utilization percentages are consistently high, then contact Oracle Support.
