TCPS/enable SSL in the Oracle extension's configuration

[mn_24]

Hi,

does anyone did this from A to Z and could advise what should be the process in order the connection/session of the monitoring user from Dynatrace(ActiveGate Oracle extension) to the Oracle database on DB server to be established as TCPS IF we want to use a custom certificate?
First step is to have a let's call it "custom" certificate, second, third? At the end to enable the SSL option from the configuration.

I haven't done that specifically, but I would just like to point out that:

1. The SQL Datasource behaves just like any Java Application connecting to the Database using JDBC
2. You have full control of the connection string
3. You can place server certificates in the JVM certificate trust store

So you can ask: "How do our applications connect to the database?"
And apply the same logic to the extension.

Ie, this documentation applies: https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/post/ssl-connection-to-oracle-db-using-jdbc-tlsv12-jks-or-oracle...

There is nothing outside of "a Java application connecting to a database"
