Proxy Servers

The Recovery Appliance does not support the use of proxy servers.

The client systems for protected databases should not force http(s) proxy settings in environment variables for RMAN sessions. The SBT library will consider those proxy settings that are specified as part of the environment setup, and therefore will use the corresponding http proxy setting. In other words, the SBT library would send backups to the proxy server, which may not be configured properly to support backups and may be unaware of the Recovery Appliance.

The proxy server environment variables must not be used at all for the Recovery Appliance.
