BZ#1114083 Configuring Proxy Settings Manually for the Capsule Server

While it is possible to set proxy settings in the Satellite Server, it is only possible to configure the Capsule Server's proxy settings manually. To manually configure the proxy settings:

  1. Add the extra settings below to the following files in the Capsule Server:
    • /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/iso_importer.json
    • /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/puppet_importer.json
    • /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json
    Add these settings to the files above: 
    {
 "proxy_host" : "proxy_url",
 "proxy_port" : proxy_port,
 "proxy_username" : "username",
 "proxy_password" : "password"
}

    Note

    Be careful when editing JSON files. The files must contain all the settings listed above even if the proxy does not require a username or password. Use the following if no username or password is required: 
     "proxy_username" : "",
 "proxy_password" : ""
  2. Restart all the Capsule related services.
