Server keys go to the server file system.

Client keys go to the client file system.

CA cert goes everywhere, as it's the binding part that permits either

Just... don't.  --cipher is a no-op in 2.6.x, and data-ciphers already
contains AES-256-GCM, so setting these will just make your config file
longer, and do no good.
