==== Docker and HTTP Proxy ====

=== Introduction ===

Access Anywhere makes use of Micro-services for key components of Access Anywhere Service. In order to deploy/manage the micro-services Access Anywhere leverages [[https://www.docker.com|Docker]]. 

A public internet Docker repository is used for Access Anywhere at [[https://registry.storagemadeeasy.com|registry.storagemadeeasy.com]]. 

For customers behind a proxy, there are configuration changes required for docker to be able to issue pull commands through the proxy. 

=== Docker Proxy ===

As root, on all the NAA nodes running docker micro-services the following configuration changes are required. This is the upstream document: [[https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/systemd/#httphttps-proxy|Docker Proxy]]

```
mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/
```

Then we we create a file in that directory like so:

**/etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf**

```
[Service]
Environment="HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxyserver>:3128"
Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=http://<proxyserver>:3129"
```

Update the <proxyserver> with the proxy server for your environment and any relevant ports updated as well.

Next reload the systemd service to update those settings:

```
systemctl daemon-reload
```

After completed restart docker

```
sudo systemctl restart docker
```

Now you're all set, all docker pull commands and the NAA rpms which pull down images will work correctly through your proxy.
