This feature is introduced in version 1.6.2.
Consolidates cluster-wide security functionality on an easily accessible single page. In the previous versions, the cluster-wide security configuration fell under TimeScaleDB’s Cluster Actions menu. Supported security functionalities are:
- Client/Server SSL encryption for TimeScaleDB-based clusters.
SSL Encryption
Enable
Enables encrypted SSL client-server connections for the database node(s). The transport layer will be encrypted using the Transfer Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The same certificate will be used on all nodes and to enable SSL encryption the nodes must be restarted. Select ‘Restart Nodes’ to perform a rolling restart of the nodes. All keys and certificates will be generated using OpenSSL.
