The following configs worked for me:

```auto
FDB_TLS_VERIFY_PEERS=Check.Valid=0 FDB_TLS_CERTIFICATE_FILE="/etc/foundationdb/fdb.pem" FDB_TLS_KEY_FILE="/etc/foundationdb/private.key" FDB_TLS_CA_FILE="/etc/foundationdb/cert.crt" fdbbackup ...

```

I can’t remember, but you may have to add `sc=0` to the blobstore url like `blobstore://access:secret@host:port/route?bucket=bucket_name&sc=0`.
