SSH may also be involved in MettleCI Workbench’s communication with Work Item Management and Git platforms. In these cases you will use a SSH key pair crated created hosted on the DataStage Engine to form this connection. Your DataStage Engine will store a private key file, an example of which (workbench.key) is created in the MettleCI directory (typically /opt/dm/mci) during MettleCI installation. The the public key equivalent (e.g. workbench.key.pub) is supplied to third party systems with which your DataStage engine needs to communicate - most commonly your Git and Work Item Management platforms. You can either use the key pair created for you by the MettleCI installation process (workbench.key / workbench.key.pub, which is a 521-bit ECDSA key) or create your own if your organisation or third party system have specified SSH key requirements. The process varies from tool to tool, so please see the relevant MettleCI documentation for tools relevant to you.
