Planning for web proxy compatibility

If a web proxy configuration is needed on your PowerVC management server, you need to consider its configuration before you install PowerVC. PowerVC relies on internal web-based communication. An improper web proxy configuration might redirect requests that are meant for PowerVC to the web proxy. This redirection can lead to problems such as installation failure.

Before installing PowerVC, ensure that the configuration has an exception for traffic that is meant for the PowerVC system. For example:
export no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,::1,.example.com"
