How to do it...

  2. On the master, copy the client* certificates to the slave:
mysql> sudo scp -i $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa /var/lib/mysql/client-key.pem /var/lib/mysql/client-cert.pem <user>@<client_ip>:
  1. On the slave, create the mysql-ssl directory to hold the SSL-related files and set the permissions correctly:
shell> sudo mkdir /etc/mysql-ssl
shell> sudo cp client-key.pem client-cert.pem /etc/mysql-ssl/
shell> sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /etc/mysql-ssl
shell> sudo chmod 600 /etc/mysql-ssl/client-key.pem
shell> sudo chmod 644 /etc/mysql-ssl/client-cert.pem
  1. On the slave, execute the CHANGE_MASTER command with the SSL-related changes on the slave:
mysql> STOP SLAVE;
