Configuring a Management Server Appliance (MSA) Proxy

Configuring a Management Server Appliance (MSA) Proxy

This article applies to all JSDR software versions.

Issue

Currently, proxy setting configuration is not available for the MSA and appliances through UI/deployment options. Furthermore, all stateless appliances cannot be configured to use permanent proxy settings.

If the MSA needs to connect to the MMS subscription server through proxy, the following workaround can be performed:

Solution

JetDR MSA Version 4.x

  • Edit the file /etc/init.d/vme2.

... CATALINA_OPTS_MEM="-server -Xms3g -Xmx3g" current_date=`date +%s` CATALINA_OPTS_DUMP="-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:HeapDumpPath='/tmp/jetdr-${current_date}.hprof'" CATALINA_OPTS_EXTRA="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom -Djavax.xml.bind.context.factory=com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.ContextFactory" CATALINA_OPTS_PROXY='-Dhttps.proxyHost=<proxy ip/fqdn> -Dhttps.proxyPort=<proxy port> -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="localhost|127.*|<local subnet(s)>"' [ -z "$CATALINA_OPTS" ] && CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS_MEM $CATALINA_OPTS_DUMP $CATALINA_OPTS_EXTRA $CATALINA_OPTS_PROXY" export JRE_HOME CATALINA_OPTS ...

JetDR MSA Version 5.0 and later

  • In JetDR 5.0 and later MSAs, changes similar to those described above should be performed in the file /etc/tomcat/conf.d/fio.conf.

  • After changes have been made the msa-tomcat service must be restarted.
