Certificate and Trust Store Requirements

During Management Cloud Engine (MCE) activation, the MCE handles certificate import and trust store creation.

The MCE uses the following key paths and files.
  1. /opt/mce/conf/ssl (inside MCE container):
    • osdmc.jks — Creates the trust store and, during activation, imports .pem files present in the /opt/mce/conf/ssl directory into the trust store.

      This trust store contains certificates required for the MCE to trust Oracle cloud services (for example, Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) or Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) endpoints).

    • If the MCE cannot obtain a token from IDCS or to register with Oracle SDM Cloud, the user must add their Root CA or intermediate CA certificates to the /opt/mce/conf/ssl directory inside the MCE container.
  2. /opt/mce/transport/tls (inside MCE container):
    • This file is used for establishing secure (TLS) connections to managed devices. The AcpKeyAndCertstore is generated when you import device certificates using the Oracle SDM Cloud's Tools drop-down menu.
