Bug 1845403

Hi Daniel,

Need your help in understanding what information we need to provide in the docs.

According to the user story, we just need to add a line of text guiding users to the OCP docs if they need to know how to configure their OCP 4.5 cluster proxy. Is that correct?

In Planning Guide --> within Supported Configurations --> we currently have sections for 
   - Using Dynamically Created Storage
   - Using Local Storage Devices

Not sure how to address this in the Planning Guide.

Hi Olive,

as I've mentioned in the email, I can provide comments just from my (QE)
perspective. For final decision, it would be better too contact somebody from
DEV and maybe PM team.

Yes, if there will be no issue with the common procedure from OCP doc, we
should just redirect to that doc.

I'm also not sure, if there should be another section in this chapter related
to the proxy environment and what should be the content.

Applied peer review feedback to 2nd paragraph.

Revised content as follows:
=====================================================================
4.3. Using a proxy environment
A proxy environment is a production environment that denies direct access to the internet and provides an available HTTP or HTTPS proxy instead. Red Hat Openshift Container Platform is configured to use a proxy by modifying the proxy object for existing clusters or by configuring the proxy settings in the install-config.yaml file for new clusters.

Red Hat supports deployment of Openshift Container Storage versions 4.5 and higher in proxy environments when OpenShift Container Platform has been configured according to configuring the cluster-wide proxy[1].

The content from comment 5 is placed as new section into Chapter 5. Security
considerations, which seems to be suitable place and otherwise correspond to
the content in the comment.
