Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: OLM could not establish GRPC connections to CatalogSource pods that were only reachable through a proxy. Consequence: If a CatalogSource pod was behind a proxy, OLM could not connect to the proxy and the hosted operator content was unavailable for installation. Fix: Introduce a GRPC_PROXY environment variable that defines a proxy that OLM will utilize to establish connections to GRPC CatalogSources. Result: OLM can now be configured to use a proxy when connecting to GRPC CatalogSources.
