Proxy appliance and updates

Post by bcravn »

Hi!

More often than not, we are deploying Veeam into a very locked down setup, with limited internet access. This is fine, and we just list what is needed to be opened to, by the customer.
But we are getting some issues with the Rocky Linux appliances, getting updates through the mirror lists.
As the documentation specifies: (mirrors.rockylinux.org, mirrors.fedoraproject.org, rockylinux.map.fastly.net). (and others)
The listed mirror URLs are used to get actual URLs that will be used to obtain updates.
And if there are only opened to the mirror sites, it will then fail...
Curl error (28): Timeout was reached for https://fastmirror.pp.ua/rockylinux/8.1 ... data/repom
d.xml [Connection timed out after 30000 milliseconds]
- Curl error (28): Timeout was reached for https://ftp.lysator.liu.se/pub/rocky/8. ... odata/repo
md.xml [Connection timed out after 30000 milliseconds]
I know this is not strictly a Veeam issue, but I do see more and more is available on https://repository.veeam.com/ and I guess that single point would make it easier to maintain access to ?
What do other do ?
Simply ask the firewall guys to open to everything listed here: https://mirrors.rockylinux.org/mirrorma ... 9.4/x86_64 ?
Or what is the best way going forward ?

Hello,
yes, there are ideas putting updates on repository.veeam.com similar like we do it for the Hardened Repository ISO. Technically you could mirror one of the rocky mirrors locally and then point to that.

Best regards
Hannes
