Purpose:
Utility provides an automated, efficient, and human readable way to perform first-step or basic self-diagnostic for vProxy appliance. The ProxyHC utility can be copied to the vProxy and run from the NetWorker Troubleshooting.
The ProxyHC utility is not included on the vProxy by default. The ProxyHC utility can be downloaded from the following support tools page: https://central.dell.com/solutions/Networker-Tools
NOTE:This uses your Dell support site credentials. For internal Dell employees, this uses your corp credentials.
The utility can be copied using the following methods:
- WinSCP:
- Host: vProxy Hostname
- Protocol: SCP
- Username: admin
NOTE: root login over SSH is typically blocked by default).
- Path: /home/admin/
- Windows Server 2019 (and later) has SCP command line capabilities:
-
scp ProxyHC admin@vProxyHostname:/home/admin/ProxyHC
-
How to Use:
1. Connect to the vProxy appliance using SSH, log in as admin.
2. Switch to root user:
2. Switch to root user:
sudo su -
3. Make ProxyHC executable:
chmod +x /home/admin/ProxyHC
4. Run ProxyHC:
/home/admin/ProxyHC flags
my-vproxy:/home/admin # /home/admin/ProxyHC vCenter --help
usage: ProxyHC vCenter [-h] --name NAME --user USER [--pwd PWD] [--vm VM]
[--nsruser NSRUSER] [--nsrpwd NSRPWD]
[--nsrauthc NSRAUTHC] [--allproxies ALLPROXIES]
