Question

We are need of better explanation on how to import public keys provided by HPE/Micro Focus in RHEL Linux

Answer

1. Download the .tar.gz file from -> https://h20392.www2.hpe.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=HPLinuxCodeSigning / https://downloads.hpe.com/pub/keys/HPE-GPG-Public-Keys.tar.gz

2. Extract the contents of the .tar.gz file into a local directory on the system where you plan to install the NNMi.

3. To import all the downloaded key files, run the following commands as root:

o rpm --import /path_to_the_keys /*.pub
o gpg --import /path_to_the_keys / *.pub

o rpm --import /path_to_the_keys /*.public
o gpg --import /path_to_the_keys /*.public

/path_to_the_keys / is the directory where you extracted the contents of the .tar.gz file.

Alternatively, you can use the below command to import all the keys at once:

o rpm --import /path_to_the_keys /*
o gpg --import /path_to_the_keys /*
