• Hive Migrator - Access metadata migration API documentation on your network

Using a custom truststore (CLI)

Use the following steps to create a custom truststore in the Data Migrator CLI. This will secure connections between Hive Migrator and Data Migrator.

1. Create a file:

   Example

   vi /example/filepath/my-cirata-cli

2. Add the following lines to the file, replacing <path to truststore> with the location of your truststore and <password> with your truststore password.

   export LIVEDATA_MIGRATOR_OPTS="-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=<path to truststore> -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=<password>"
   
   /opt/wandisco/livedata-migrator-cli/bin/livedata-migrator -hostname <FQDN>

3. Save the file.

4. Make the file executable:

   Example:

   chmod +x my-cirata-cli

5. Run the CLI:

   /example/filepath/my-cirata-cli

6. Connect to Data Migrator:

   connect livemigrator --host <hostname> --ssl

See Command reference for more information on the connect command.
