Viewing SSH key archive
The Asset Administrator can access a previous SSH key for an account for a specific date.
The SSH Key Archive dialog only displays previously assigned SSH keys for the selected asset based on the date specified. This dialog does not display the current SSH key for the asset. The SSH key archive is never purged.
You view an account's SSH key validation and reset history on the Check and Change Log tab.
To access an account's previous SSH key
- Navigate to Administrative Tools | Accounts.
- In Accounts, right-click an account name and choose
SSH Key Archive.
Or, click
SSH Key Archive from the toolbar.
-
In the SSH Key Archive dialog, select a date. If you select today's date (or a previous date) and no entries are returned, this indicates that the asset is still using the current SSH key.
- In the View column, click
to display the SSH key that was assigned to the asset at that given date and time.
- In the details dialog, click Copy to copy the SSH key to your copy buffer, or click OK to close the dialog.
