Reading these documents:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Vir...
http://www.ovirt.org/CLI
http://www.ovirt.org/How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_Without_Portal
It is not clear to me the correct combination/requirements on client
side to be able to connect
ovirt-shell -h
==============
-K KEY_FILE, --key-file=KEY_FILE
specify client PEM key-file
-C CERT_FILE, --cert-file=CERT_FILE
specify client PEM cert-file
-A CA_FILE, --ca-file=CA_FILE
specify server CA cert-file
[oVirt shell (disconnected)]# help connect
=========================================
....
* [key-file] - The client PEM key file to use.
* [cert-file] - The client PEM certificate file to use.
* [ca-file] - The server CA certificate file to use.
...
http://www.ovirt.org/CLI#Connect
===============================
has very same description of certificates
- so as you see doesn't matter what option you choose, it has clear
distinction between client and server certificates,
and obviously if you have CA certificate (called ca.crt)
you should be using options called: "--cert-file", "-A
CA_FILE/--ca-file=CA_FILE"
Suppose I keep empty (aka default values) the .ovirtshellrc file:
[cli]
autoconnect = True
autopage = True
[ovirt-shell]
username =
timeout = None
extended_prompt = False
url =
insecure = False
filter = False
session_timeout = None
ca_file =
dont_validate_cert_chain = False
key_file = None
password =
cert_file =
And put all needed options into command line. The steps I understand I
have to do are
1) curl -o ca.crt
http://f18engine/ca.crt
(that should be "server CA cert-file", correct?)
2) connect
But with
ovirt-shell -c -A ./ca.crt -l
https://10.4.4.60:443/api -u admin@internal
I get
error: _ssl.c:291: Both the key & certificate files must be specified
this is happens cause you have specified one of the client validation certificates
and as error states, both --key-file + --cert-file should be supplied for client
validation.
that I don't find any reference for in the docs...
Probably it is my fault with poor certificates/CA knowledge, but I
presume it should be simpler for a user that only wants to interface
to oVirt CLI have a correct sequence of steps
Also, from
http://www.ovirt.org/CLI#Usage (referred in
/usr/share/doc/ovirt-engine-cli-3.3.0.5/README)
ovirt-shell --help should give the help
but this seems not to be true:
please read again the docs, they all have clear documentation
where CA and where client side validation certificates.
