Configuring Import Appliance Encryption

Describes how to configure encryption on your import appliance.

Note

You can only use the CLI command to configure encryption for appliances.

Using the CLI

Use the oci dts physical-appliance configure-encryption command and required parameters to configure encryption on your import appliance.

oci dts physical-appliance configure-encryption --job-id job_id --appliance-label appliance_label [OPTIONS]

For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

For example:

oci dts physical-appliance configure-encryption --job-id ocid1.datatransferjob.oc1..exampleuniqueID --appliance-label XAKWEGKZ5T

Initializing Authentication to the Appliance

Note

You can only use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure CLI to initialize authentication.

Initialize authentication to allow the host machine to communicate with the import appliance. Use the values returned from the Configure Networking command. See Configuring the Transfer Appliance Networking for details.
