Creating the keys
If You will need to create a key pair if you don't have an existing key pair already, you will need to create one. If you do, then see below.
From a Linux or Mac, you may generate it with the command (follow the instructions it prompts you with):
...
This creates a key pair in "PEM" format, as required by Morpheus.
Converting existing keys
Note that it's often good practice to use different credentials for different services, so you may want to create a new key pair instead of reusing existing ones.
However, if you do want to reuse existing keys, they're probably in OpenSSH format, and Morpheus wants PEM (RSA) format. Take a copy first, as the conversion process overwrites the original, then run ssh-keygen -p -If you have a key in another format (e.g. OpenSSH, PuTTY, etc), you may need to convert it. OpenSSH can do this for its key types with ssh-keygen -m pem -f /path/to/key_to_be_converted_and_overwritten.
For other non-OpenSSH formats or clients, please search for an appropriate conversion mechanism or contact EWC support for help.
