@huangtianhua, thank you very much for the verification and feedback.

The reason I set the length of RSA keys to 2048 is to make sure it works on 
CentOS8.  With CentOS8, the default security level of the OpenSSL library is 
set to 2, and in that case RSA keys of 1024-bits in length are considered too 
weak, so the client side is not able to verify certificates signed by such 
keys.  Basically, this is a forward-looking patch: it addresses KUDU-3087 for 
Linux distros prior to RHEL/CentOS 8 and RHEL/CentOS 8, and also other hardened 
Linux OS distributions.
