-i SSHIdentityFile
(Optional) The name of an identity file, in the OpenSSH format, to be used for authentication with SFTP, in place of a password. You must specify either a password or an identity file, but not both. If you specify an identity file you can also specify a pass phrase with the Passphrase parameter.
On z/OS systems, known hosts files and SSH identity files are stored in EBCDIC format, and on other operating systems they are stored in ASCII format. |
Is the identity file the broker's private SSH key file name or the public key file name?
The SFTP is outward from the broker to a SFTP server. |

Neither. |

OK, give us a clue then....what is it meant to be?
I was going to point it at /home/broker_id/.ssh/id_rsa
Our broker id has had ssh keys created with ssh-keygen. The SFTP target has added the broker public key file contents (id_rsa.pub) to their authorized_keys file. |

It specifies the name of an SSH Identity file, in the OpenSSH format.
It does not specify the name of the broker's keystore files or the broker's trust store files.
If you can use /home/broker_d/.shh/id_rsa to connect using the sftp command line, then you can specify the same file here. |

the -i operand is not supported on the sftp command.
However it works with the ssh command, so I guess the answer is that the identity file is a private key file generated by ssh-keygen |
