Test SCP server connection
. To enable the secure transfer of data, you must verify and accept the host key of the SCP server. Panorama doesn’t establish the connection until you accept the host key. If Panorama has an HA configuration, perform this step on each HA peer so that each one accepts the host key of the SCP server. If Panorama can successfully connect to the SCP server, it creates and uploads the test file named ssh-export-test.txt.
