Storing the private SSH key in the SAN Volume Controller Console software

For both the hardware and software versions of the IBM® System Storage® Productivity Center or master console, when the SSH keys that are used to communicate with the SAN Volume Controller node are generated or changed, you must store a copy of the new private key in the SAN Volume Controller Console software.

Perform the following steps to store a copy of the new private key in the SAN Volume Controller Console software:

  1. Open a command prompt window.
  2. Type the following command:

    copy path\icat.ppk C:\"Program Files"\IBM\svcconsole\cimom

    where path is the path where you stored the SSH private key when it was generated and C:\"Program Files"\IBM\svcconsole\cimom is the location where you installed the SAN Volume Controller Console.

    Important: Directory names with embedded spaces must be surrounded by double quotation marks.
  3. Close the command prompt window.
