Syntax

vtl replaceServer -o <old server hostname> -n <new server hostname> -c <certificate filespec> [-htl]

Description

-o <old server hostname>  [mandatory] The hostname (or IP address) of the server being replaced. Use the IP address if the server's certificate uses its ip address instead of its hostname.

-n <new server hostname>  [mandatory] The hostname (or IP address) of the server that is replacing the previous server. Use the IP address if the server's certificate uses its ip address instead of its hostname. If you are uncertain what format the server's certificate uses contact your SafeNet appliance administrator, or look for the “CN=” field when using the vtl examineCert command.

-c <certificate filespec>  [mandatory] The name (including the path to its location on your computer) of the server's certificate file.

-htl  [optional] Require HTL (host trust link) an additional layer of trust, that separates the link authentication from specific hardware, allowing trust of virtual clients, such as in cloud environments - also can be used to enhance trust for non-virtual/non-cloud clients.

bash # ./vtl replaceServer -o yourluna -n myluna -c server.pem -htl
New server myluna successfully added to server list.
Server yourluna successfully replaced with myluna.
