We are trying to configure SSL for XCOM and so need to complete the required CSR/certificate creation. We found that openssl is not installed in the usual system location on the server and is only installed under the Sybase application database i.e.
Will this impact the ability to create the required certificate or the XCOM functionality?
XCOM™ Data Transport® for Linux PC
Normally if the standard Linux openssl package is installed the openssl binary is located in /usr/bin i.e.
# which openssl
/usr/bin/openssl
However you should be able to use the openssl binary installed under your Sybase directory to create the certificate.
Also for execution of XCOM secure transfers the OpenSSL libraries it uses are provided by the CAPKI package installed with XCOM so not having the Linux openssl package installed will not impact that execution.
To check for openssl packages installed:
# rpm -qa|grep -i ^openssl
openssl-1.0.2k-16.el7.x86_64
openssl-libs-1.0.2k-16.el7.x86_64
See this Red Hat page openssl on RHEL7 - openssl-1.0.2k-16.el7 is the latest suggested package to install.
Check the Red Hat page for information about openssl for your version.
See Set Up TLS/SSL Mode in our online documentation.
