How to enable specific SSH host key algorithm for SFTP connector (rsa-sha2-512)

Description:

We are using DataVirtuality 25.4 with an SFTP connector via JSch 0.2.7. After upgrading to DV 25.4, our SFTP connection to an external partner stopped working due to an SSH algorithm negotiation failure.

The partner's server supports rsa-sha2-512. We need to configure our SFTP connector to explicitly enable this algorithm for the host key negotiation.

Error we are seeing:

Algorithm negotiation fail: algorithmName="server_host_key" 
jschProposal="ssh-ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256"
serverProposal="ssh-rsa"

Question: How can we explicitly configure the allowed SSH host key algorithms for a specific SFTP data source in DV 25.4?

Environment:

  • DV Studio version: 25.4
  • Server version: 25.4
