Accessing the Server Public Key

You can access the Audit Vault Server public key from the Manage Archive Locations area.

You must provide the server’s public key to another system in order to upload archive files from the Audit Vault Server to that system. This public key must be added to the authorized_keys file for that system. For a typical Linux installation, this file is in the user’s home directory under .ssh, and its permissions must be set to 0600, or even 0400.

1. Log in to the Oracle Database Security Central console as an administrator.

2. Select Settings.

3. In the left navigation menu, select Archiving.

4. In the page that appears, select Manage Archive Locations, and then select Create.

5. In the Create Archive Location window, in the Public Key field, copy this key and paste it into the appropriate file on another system.
