The Data Server connects to the ActiveSpaces Data Grid using TIBCO FTL. See the TIBCO FTL section for instructions on securing those connections.

Data Cache

...

The Data Server receives data via http POST, which can be secured by using HTTPS. To configure the Data Server HTTP port to use HTTPS, go to General→CUSTOM the General→CUSTOM PROPERTIES tab of the RTView Configuration Application and enter the following:

name: sl.rtview.rtvhttp.use_https
value: true
filter: collector

Applications posting data to Data Cache can be configured to use https (instead of http) as the scheme in their POST request URI/URL

...

The Data Server connects to Oracle Coherence by either joining the cluster as a node (direct connection) or via querying MBeans using JMX. See the Oracle documentation for information on securing your cluster. When configuring RTView to connect as a node to a secure cluster, all necessary information is in the cluster config .xml file so no additional configuration is needed in the Data Server.

Alternately, you can configure the Coherence nodes to use secure JMX. Secure JMX support user authentication (user name and password) and SSL. See the Oracle documentation for information on how to configure secure JMX for your nodes. To connect via JMX to a node that has been secured via user authernticationauthentication, include the user name and password in the jmxconn connection string. To connect via JMX to a node that has been secured via SSL, add the following properties to your rtview properties file replacing the values with the appropriate values for your truststore and keystore:

sl.rtview.jvm=-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=client_keystore.jks

sl.rtview.jvm=-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=mypassword

sl.rtview.jvm=-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=client_truststore.jks

sl.rtview.jvm=-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=mypassword

Oracle Enterprise Manager

...

The Data Server connects to IBM MQ via the IBM MQ java client libraries. IBM MQ can be secured via SSL. See the IBM MQ documentation for securing your database. To connect to an IBM MQ instanced instance that has been secured via SSL, turn on the "Do you want to connect using SSL?" toggle in the RTView Configuration Application IBM MQ Add Connection dialog in the RTView Configuration Application and fill in the certificate and cipher suite fields as appropriate for your configuration.

...

The Data Server acquires Docker data from cadvisor based agents which send data via http POST requests to the Data Server. By default the The cadvisor agents post to http by default, which is unsecured. To post to https instead, modify the RTVHTTPURL variable in the rtvapm/dockermon/agents/cadvisor-rtview/cadvisor-rtview.sh script to use https instead of http in the url. To enable the Data Server to receive data via https, add the following to the CUSTOM PROPERTIES tab of the RTView Configuration Application:

Name: sl.rtview.rtvhttp.use_https

Value: true

Filter: collector

UserExperience

UXMON performs simulated transactions by means of the uxrobot process which sends metric data via socket to the Data Server on port XX72. By default, this socket is not secure, but the data will be sent via secure socket if the Data Server is configured for SSL sockets.

...

The Data Server connects to MongoDB via the MongoDB java client library. A MongoDB instance can be secured via user credentials, TLS, SSL or DNS Seedlist. See the MongoDB documentation for information on how to secure your MongoDB instance. Each security option has one or more corresponding parameters in the connection URI string. To connect to a secure MongoDB instance from RTView, use the appropriate connection string URI parameters in the RTView Configuration Application MongoDB Connection URL field dialog in the RTView Configuration Application when defining the connection to that instance. Some example URI's for SSL and TLS secured instances:

use the ssl=true connection option in the connection string URI
mongodb://db0.example.com,db1.example.com,db2.example.com/?replicaSet=myRepl&ssl=true
or
use the tls=true connection option in the connection string URI
mongodb://db0.example.com,db1.example.com,db2.example.com/?replicaSet=myRepl&tls=true

TIBCO ActiveSpaces 2

The Data Server connects to TIBCO ActiveSpaces via the TIBCO ActiveSpaces java client libraray. See the TIBCO documentation for securing metaspaces and generating a security token file. To connect to a secure metaspace, turn on the Use Security Token option in the RTView Configuration Application TIBCO ActiveSpaces 2 Connection dialog, then fill in the Security Token File field along with any of the other fields in that section that apply to your metaspace security configuration.
