5 GENERATE SSH KEYS (PUBLIC & PRIVATE)
Before you can create Database or EBS (R12) instance on Cloud, you must generate SSH Key
Pair (Private & Public Keys) so that you can connect to Linux Machine on which Database or EBS
R12 is installed .
Public Key will be uploaded on Oracle Cloud Server while private key must be kept safe with
you
In this section we download WinSCP installer with puttygen (Utility to connect to Unix
server) from and
a) Generate Private & Public Key on local Laptop or PC using puttygen keygen tool
from putty that we created in previous section (make a note of location of private &
public Key)
32 contact@k21academy.com
b) When we create Database as a Service Instnce, you provide public key that gets
stored on Oracle Dabase Cloud Service Server (It is OK to share Public Key but
never share Private Key)
c) Future connection from local Laptop/PC is securily done over SSH and is
Authenticated using Private/Public Key pair
Depending on operating system of your laptop or desktop (Windows or Mac) refere resepective
section to generate SSH Private and Public Keys
2. Make sure you don’t save Public Key by clicking on Save button but copy and
then save to text file on computer in same directory where you have private key
(Public Key will be uploaded to Oracle Cloud but keep private key safe with you)
33 contact@k21academy.com
3. You can click on Save Private Key button to save private key in same directory
with public key but with extensiton ppk
You can either use puttyGen from WinScp (Provided you get option SSH-2 RSA for Type of Key)
otherwise downaload puttyGen from http://puttygen.software.informer.com/download/
Note: If you are on Mac then check steps later in this section
1. You can use WinSCP (provided PuttyGen in WInSCP shows SSH-2 RSA key), Open
Tools and Run PuTTYGen you’ll have the advanced optioin of using the ‘PuttyGen’ ,
34 contact@k21academy.com
Click “Run PuttyGen”.
2. As per the Oracle documentation, we need SSH-2 RSA to generate the key, because it
is the latest one.
3. If you don’t see SSH-2 RSA in puttyGen as part of WinSCP, Download puttygen from
http://puttygen.software.informer.com/download/
35 contact@k21academy.com
4. Install PuttyGen Click “Run PuttyGen
5. You must use SSH-2 RSA to generate the key, because it is the latest one and required
by Oracle .
36 contact@k21academy.com
6. To generate the keys, Click on Genegate and hover your mouse around the area blank
area randomly as shown:
NOTE : Do not save the Public key directly by clicking the Save Public Key button, as its not
allowed, rather you can copy and paste them in the Notepad to save.
You can save the Private key directly, you can also set a passphrase(password) for it
asper the security concerns.Private keys are saved with the extension .ppk.
Note: We are not setting passpharse for ease (In production you must use passphrase to
protect your private key).
37 contact@k21academy.com
After generating and saving both the keys, you can go back to the Cloud Portal
8. This will generate Private & Public Key, Save them to your Laptop/Desktop.
