Description

ConfD job cert_update is used to upload TLS-related related files (see documentation: cert_update).

Fix

The cert_update ConfD API received two fixes:

  • The description was incorrect. In Exasol 8 the database does not need to be restarted after a new certificate is uploaded.
  • The db_list parameter was dropped. This claimed to allow uploading a certificate that’s only used for specific databases. This never worked and the same certificate is always used for all databases / db worker clusters in a deployment.

Changed behavior

Parameter "db_list" of ConfD job "cert_update" was removed. However, it didn't work before according to the documentation.
