Hi all,

Just noticed another “calling home” kind of feature:
eclipse-committers-oxygen-M7 shows “polling news feeds” in the progress 
occasionally.
Does anyone know how to turn that off?

Thanks,
Martin

Thanks so much for the quick answer, Ed!

I’ve added that System Property and will run with it for a while.

Still wondering if USS could also be turned off for the MPC (or globally for 
all clients?), but MPC is by far not so important since users of MPC are 
already prepared to access the Internet anyways.

Cheers,
Martin

Martin,

I think -Doomph.setup.sync.skip=true will avoid the use of USS by Oomph.

You can host your own index somewhere else as follows:

Hi cross-project,

While testing the brand-new Oxygen M7 packages, I came across an issue that I 
wanted to share.
Plus, I have no solution yet so I’m looking for help!

At a customer site, I want to use Oxygen Packages, but I’m sitting behind an 
authenticating proxy there.
So I have no Internet access. And if I had, I’d still want to make sure no data 
gets sent to the
Internet from that customer.

I easily found out how to disable AERI, to avoid error reporting reaching out:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/EPP/Logging#Disabling_AERI_in_builds_and_runtime_Eclipse

But how can I disable the new USS used by Oomph and MPC?

I found a related forum thread 
[1]<https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1081127/>, but it was no help. 
What I need is a System Property to turn off all internet access. I still want 
to use Oomph with locally stored setup tasks, but the attempt using USS or 
downloading setup.zip must be turned off.

Right now, I’m getting several exceptions logged due to Oomph/USS, and I want 
to get rid of them.
But what concerns me more, I think it is a valid use-case disabling all sort of 
“calling home” by Eclipse.
So I think that documentation on how to turn this off must be available very 
easily!

Any help / comments?
