15.3.6.2. SSH-based access
The SSH access method provides command-line file transfer capabilities through key-based authentication. When you configure fileAccess.ssh: {} in the VMFR CR, the controller autogenerates an SSH key pair and stores it in a Kubernetes secret. SSH-based access supports the following tools:
-
scpfor individual file transfer -
sftpfor interactive file browsing sessions -
rsyncover SSH for synchronizing files and directories
SSH access uses the following defaults:
-
Default username:
oadp -
Default port:
2222 -
Remote path format:
/restores/<date>/<backup_name>/<vm_name>/<path_to_file> - SSH access uses key-based authentication only. Password-based logins are not supported.
