There is no option to set proxy in Fuel UI

[Dennis Dmitriev]

If a customer deploy OpenStack with Fuel on environment that doesn't have direct Internet connection, but Internet accessible through proxy server, the customer may want to use this proxy for access Ubuntu reposiroties or Ubuntu/Centos MOS update repositories with this proxy.

But we doesn't provide options to set the proxy server for package managers in the OpenStack cluster.

[Andrey Maximov (maximov)]

I see three options how we can address this:
1) by adding config parameter in yaml file, as we do for experimental features. should be easy to implement
2) by adding proxy settings in network config UI, preferred option

let's investigate which option we can implement with 1 day.

This is actually a missing part of the feature separate-mos-from-linux, so let's add this into the release - it is seamless and smooth.

I restored the bug assignee as there is still no option for HTTP proxy in Fuel UI exist

https://review.openstack.org/187229 is for yum proxy

[Alex Schultz (alex-schultz)]

It should be noted that even if we do allow for an http_proxy_url to be provided via hiera and these pending changes are merged, the deployment will still fail at the connectivity_tests task as it will not be leveraging the proxy settings. We would need to either also pass the http_proxy_url as an environment var (http_proxy) or update the task to leverage this setting.

    Add proxy support for url_available

    In order to support deployments that are configuring proxies for
    their yum/apt repositories, we need to also support proxies for the
    repo connectivity_tests task. This change adds the support to pass
    in a proxy to use when checking the url availability.

Also, this info should be set in Anaconda or preseed as it makes no sense for classic provision.

[Andrey Maximov (maximov)]

it was decided that all apt-get configuration support will be done in nailgun

[Sergii Golovatiuk (sgolovatiuk)]

Scope of this request needs to be clarified precisely because this change will affect several modules. net-checker, puppet, nailgun, astute. Also it needs to be well-tested and we are at the HCF line. After discussion with Mike Scherbakov we decided to postpone this feature to 7.0 in order to avoid risks for 6.1 and in order to avoid delivery of unclear feature.
