The environment variables are changed at the *JOB level by default. In that regard, it is similar to changing a job's library list, meaning that the change affects the current user's session only.
HTTPS in Genie
| Info |
|---|
ThePROFOUNDJS_COMM_VERIFYPEER and PROFOUNDJS_COMM_VERIFYHOST environment variables were added in Profound.js 5.8.2 |
In order to specify that Genie should connect via HTTPS, you will need to use the PROFOUNDJS_COMM_SECURE environment variable. To use HTTPS for this, you will want to set PROFOUNDJS_COMM_SECURE to 1.
By default, the Profound.js Connector will verify that the server's SSL certificate is issued by a trusted authority and that the host name used on the request matches the host name the server's certificate was issued for. This ensures secure communications. However, in some cases (i.e. when using a self-signed server certificate) it may be necessary to disable these verifications. The following environment variables can be used:
- PROFOUNDJS_COMM_VERIFYPEER: Set to '0' to disable SSL certificate verification.
- PROFOUNDJS_COMM_VERIFYHOST: Set to '0' to disable SSL host name verification.
Note: Disabling SSL certificate and host name verification makes communications insecure and is strongly discouraged! Do not disable these verifications unless you understand/accept the risks.
