Hi Shridhar:
I run smartos behind a proxy also (but an unauthenticated proxy
server), and I am able to run imgadm commands by using the following
syntax:
* http_proxy=http://proxy.company.com:8000 imgadm avail
* http_proxy=http://proxy.company.com:8000 imgadm import <UUID>
You would need to replace the "http://proxy.company.com:8000"; with
your proxy server, port, (and I believe you can put proxy
authentication as part of this also). I found that if I had exported
the http_proxy on a separate line, it did not work.
Also, I was able to download images from Joyent with the following
commands (I prefer this practice, it allows me to keep a copy of an
image, in case Joyent deletes an image, or when we have problems
connecting to the internet):
* You will need to know the UUID of the image (use the command to
find
that: "http_proxy=http://proxy.company.com:8000 imgadm avail" )
* Then, use that UUID to download the manifest:
o wget --no-check-certificate -O $UUID.manifest
https://images.joyent.com/images/$UUID
* and then the actual image:
o wget --no-check-certificate -O $UUID.zfs
https://images.joyent.com/images/$UUID/file
o (note the /file at the end)
* You can use the command "sha1sum $UUID.zfs" to check the sha1
checksum and compare it to the value found in the $UUID.manifest
file (grep sha1 $UUID.manifest)
o note: sha1sum is not part of the smartos distribution, I had to
find my own copy of it
Instead of looking for your own copy of sha1sum, you can use openssl.
e.g.
openssl sha1 $UUID.zfs
Also, once you have a SmartOS native zone up, you can do the wget from
there without the --no-check-certificate
I set up a downloads area which is accessible from both the native zone
and the global zone for this:
e.g.
in the GZ:
zfs create zones/image_downloads
and create the file add_image_downloads.json
{
"add_filesystems": [
{ "type": "lofs", "source": "/zones/image_downloads", "target":
"/image_downloads" }
]
}
vmadm update <uuid-of-native-zone> -f add_image_downloads.json
then (after restarting the native zone to bring that update in), in
the native zone:
cd /image_downloads
wget ...
Like you, I have occasional internet connectivity problems. Keeping a
local
copy of downloaded images can be very useful. It also gives you an
audit
trail if things go wrong.
* To install the image:
o imgadm install -m $UUID.manifest -f $UUID.zfs
