Configuring the proxy settings on Linux

If your organization uses an outgoing proxy server to connect to the Internet, the Secure Agent connects to

Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

through the proxy server.

You can update the proxy server settings defined for the Secure Agent from the command line. To configure the proxy server settings for the Secure Agent on a Linux machine, you must update the

proxy.ini

file and configure the JVM options of the Secure Agent.

These steps do not work for Mass Ingestion Databases.

Contact your network administrator for the proxy settings.

Navigate to the following directory:

<Secure Agent installation directory>/apps/agentcore/conf

To update the

proxy.ini

file, add the following parameters and specify appropriate values for each parameter:

InfaAgent.ProxyHost=<proxy_server_hostname>
           InfaAgent.ProxyPort=<proxy_server_port>
           InfaAgent.ProxyUser=<user_name>
           InfaAgent.ProxyPassword=<password>
           InfaAgent.ProxyPasswordEncrypted=false

For example,

InfaAgent.ProxyHost=INW2PF0MT01V
           InfaAgent.ProxyPort=808
           InfaAgent.ProxyUser=user06
           InfaAgent.ProxyPassword=user06
           InfaAgent.ProxyPasswordEncrypted=false
