dmscli get credential

AI Tools

Retrieves service credentials to grant DMS service access to a Lightbits cluster.

Synopsis

dmscli get credential [flags]

Attaching a new Lightbits cluster to the DMS system is a two-step process.

Step 1: Get credentials from the DMS service and add them to the Lightbits cluster:

  • Invoke this command from the DMS service to get a public key and the public key ID.

  • The Base64-encoded public key should be Base64 decoded, imported, and saved as a file on the Lightbits cluster:

echo "<base64 encoded Public Key>" | base64 -d > /tmp/pub-key.pem scp /tmp/pub-key.pem <user>@<LightbitsServer>:<FILE_PATH> rm -rf /tmp/pub-key.pem
  • The credentials should then be added to the cluster:

lbcli create credential --project-name=system --id=<PUB_KEY_ID> --type=rsa256pubkey <FILE_PATH>

Step 2: Attach the Lightbits cluster to the DMS system. Use the attach command providing a Lightbits cluster API endpoint address.

After Base64 decoding, the contents should be saved as a file (e.g., into <FILE_PATH>) and passed as an argument to the following command to the corresponding Lightbits cluster, with <FILE_PATH> and <PUB_KEY_ID> substituted, as appropriate. lbcli create credential --project-name=system--id=<PUB_KEY_ID> --type=rsa256pubkey <FILE_PATH>
