Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 816176
Enable/Disable Proxy for specific repo feeds
Last modified: 2013-10-28 08:26:21 EDT
Description of problem: This could be considered a functionality request as well as a bug. Currently, it is possible to use a proxy by introducing the following into global config in pulp.conf... [yum] proxy_url: http://{MY_PROXY_IP} proxy_port: 80 Our use case here is that we require a proxy to be used for external feeds, such as CentOS, RHEL and EPEL. We need the proxy to be *disabled* for internal feeds, such as from Spacewalk. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.0.0-2.el6 (EPEL release) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable proxy in pulp.conf 2. Create a repo with external feed 3. Create a repo with internal feed 4. Sync both repos Actual results: Only internal or external feed will sync depending on whether proxy is enabled or disabled. Expected results: Both internal and external feeds will sync without needing to change config. Additional info: This is low severity as the workaround is to disable/enable proxy and sync manually.
Pulp already provides for the desired functionality. Pulp supports either specifying the proxy details (1) on a per repo basis, or (2) globally. See: https://pulp-rpm-user-guide.readthedocs.org/en/pulp-2.1/recipes.html#use-a-proxy So in your specific situation, you would set the proxy configuration *only* on the externally feed repositories.
Fixed in current release.
