Enabling HTTP(S) Proxy for Storware Backup & Recovery

You can configure the system to communicate through an HTTP(S) proxy. You can configure the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables using the vprotect.env file.

1. Edit the vprotect.env file that is located in /opt/vprotect/vprotect.env. Uncomment the following lines and specify the correct proxy address:

   http_proxy="proxy.address:8080"
   https_proxy="proxy.adress:8080"
   no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1"

   Make sure to change proxy.address to the address of your proxy, it can be either IP address or FQDN.

2. Restart the Storware Backup & Recovery Node and Server to apply the changes.

   systemctl restart vprotect-node vprotect-server

Repeat above steps for each host where the Server and/or Node is installed.
