register_host Utility
Use the register_host
utility to create certificate requests, exchange certificates between the CipherTrust Manager and the host, and to register CTE on the CipherTrust Manager. After the host is registered, you can configure CTE, apply GuardPoints, or perform database backups. Run the register_host
utility in text mode on a terminal window.
Caution
The default host registration timeout is 10 minutes. If the host is unable to reach the CipherTrust Manager within the allotted period because of an extremely slow network connection, set the REGISTER_HOST_TIMEOUT
environment variable to extend the registration timeout. The variable value is an integer expressed in seconds. You might also have to extend the default TCP timeout.
