Goal: If a proxy is configured on the vRO (any version) then I need to fetch those settings and credentials (if any) then use those properties to route all the request of my plugin from that proxy server.
Problem: We cannot find any way to fetch the proxy settings and credentials that are set up in the vRO.
It has been a long time I've written a plugin, but if there is a proxy configured on the vRO server, it should be available as part of environment variables. Did you try with accessing these in your plugin?
System.getProperty("http.proxyHost");
System.getProperty("http.proxyPort");
Hi @maverix7 ,
The approach you suggested is correct but I am also facing an issue in setting up the proxy settings in vRO 8.1.
I used this command to set proxy,
root@cs-vm00 [ ~ ]# vracli proxy set --host http://10.21.202.244:81
But the affected lines are : upstream_proxy_host, upstream_proxy_port.
root@cs-vm00 [ ~ ]# vracli proxy show
{
"enabled": true,
"host": "10.244.4.51",
"java-proxy-exclude": "*.local|*.localdomain|localhost|10.244.*|192.168.*|172.16.*|kubernetes|10.21.202.220|",
"java-user": null,
"password": null,
"port": 3128,
"proxy-exclude": ".local,.localdomain,localhost,10.244.,192.168.,172.16.,kubernetes,10.21.202.220",
"scheme": "http",
"upstream_proxy_host": "10.21.202.244",
"upstream_proxy_password_encoded": "",
"upstream_proxy_port": 81,
"upstream_proxy_user_encoded": "",
"user": null,
"internal.proxy.config": "dns_v4_first on \nhttp_port 0.0.0.0:3128\nlogformat squid %ts.%03tu %6tr %>a %Ss/%03>Hs %<st %rm %ru %[un %Sh/%<a %mt\naccess_log stdio:/tmp/logger squid\ncoredump_dir /\ncache deny all \nappend_domain .prelude.svc.cluster.local\nacl mylan src 10.0.0.0/8\nacl mylan src 127.0.0.0/8\nacl mylan src 192.168.3.0/24\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain .local\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain .localdomain\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain localhost\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain 10.244.\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain 192.168.\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain 172.16.\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain kubernetes\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain 10.21.202.220\nacl proxy-exclude dstdomain .purecloud.com\nalways_direct allow proxy-exclude\nhttp_access allow mylan\nhttp_access deny all\n# End autogen configuration\n# http configuration of remote peer follows\ncache_peer 10.21.202.244 parent 81 0 no-query default \nnever_direct allow all\n",

}
Whereas when fetching these settings in the code using:
System.getProperty("http.proxyHost"); System.getProperty("http.proxyPort");
I get the 10.244.4.51 and 3128 respectively.
Can you please help me with this?
This is the way to do it. Follow this checklist of prerequisites to see if you cover them https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Automation/8.0/Using-and-Managing-Cloud-Assembly/GUID-C983585B-0...
Hi @maverix7,
I followed the steps but the proxy host and port didn't updated.
I also used :
vracli proxy apply command
Any idea were I could go wrong?
