Configure an SSL for the Database

Note: In AppViewX v12.4.0, MongoDB has been upgraded from v3.0.7 to v3.6.2. There is a provision to configure secure communication(SSL) in the updated version and by default, it will be enabled for the database.
Note: The MongoDB storage engine will be available in wiredtiger. (In the older version, it was available in MMAP).

To enable or disable SSL for the database:

  1. Go to the directory <avx_installed_directory>/conf .
  2. Open the configuration file appviewx.conf by entering the following command: vi appviewx.conf
    • To disable, set ENABLE_SSL=False in the appviewx.conf file.
    • To enable, set ENABLE_SSL=True in the appviewx.conf file.
  3. Execute the following commands:
    • appviewx -cert-gen
    • appviewx --initialize all
    • appviewx --restart all
