ECA_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH for NetBackup servers and clients
The ECA_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH option specifies the file path to the private key for the external CA-signed certificate of the host. The private key file should be in PEM format.
This option is mandatory for file-based certificates.
If the private key of the certificate is encrypted, you should specify the ECA_KEY_PASSPHRASEFILE option.
See ECA_KEY_PASSPHRASEFILE for NetBackup servers and clients.
For encrypted private keys, NetBackup supports the following formats:
DES, 3DES, and AES if the private key is in the PKCS #1 format (if encrypted, can be in PEM format)
DES, 3DES, AES, RC2, and RC4 if the private key is in the PKCS #8 format (if encrypted, can be in PEM or DER format)
Note:
You should not specify the ECA_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH option if Windows certificate store is specified for the ECA_CERT_PATH option.
