  1. Note the fingerprint of the public key. (Include all content that is inside the downloaded file)
  2. Store the private key in a secure location.

3. Importer Configuration

To configure the FenixDFA OCI Importer, provide the following information:

Configuration Parameters

image
tenancy_ocid              // Tenancy OCID (e.g., ocid1.tenancy.oc1...)
user_ocid                 // User OCID (e.g., ocid1.user.oc1...)
fingerprint               // API key fingerprint (e.g., bd:e8:44:50...)
private_key               // Private key content (starting with -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----)
private_key_passphrase    // Private key passphrase (leave blank if none)
region                    // OCI Region (e.g., sa-saopaulo-1)

Security Guidelines

  • Never share your private keys.
  • Store all credentials securely.
  • Use environment variables or password vaults to manage credentials.
  • If a key is exposed, immediately revoke it and generate a new one.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Authentication Error
  • Ensure the user OCID is correct.
  • Verify that the fingerprint matches the associated private key.
  • Make sure the private key is in the correct format.
  1. Permission Error
  • Check the IAM policies assigned to the user.
  • Confirm that the user has access to the required resources.
  1. Region Error
  • Verify that the specified region is accurate.
  • Ensure that the resources are available in the indicated region.

Technical Support

If issues persist:

  1. Refer to the official Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation.
  2. Review system logs for more details.
  3. Contact technical support, providing relevant logs and error messages.
