1.2 Ondemand Content Master - Requirements

Ondemand content masters (OCM) download content for managed device distribution from content distribution networks (CDN). Only primary servers can be OCMs.

Configuring a proxy: If the OCM requires a proxy to access the service, the OCM server’s Subscription proxy configuration file is used.

If you have configured your network to use a proxy server, you must configure the proxy server subscriptions.

  1. On the Primary Server on which the Ondemant Content Master is configured to run, navigate to the lpm-server.properties file.

    • Linux: /etc/opt/microfocus/zenworks/

    • Windows: %ZENSERVER_HOME%\conf

    An example of the content within the lpm-server.properties file is displayed below:

    Debug=false

    TTL=24

    subscription-proxyaddress=

    subscription-proxyport=

    subscription-proxyuser=

    subscription-proxypassword=

    subscription-useNTLM=false

  2. Modify and save the file with the following subscription proxy details:

    • Set the value of subscription-proxyaddress to the IP address of the proxy server.

    • Set the value of subscription-proxyport to the port number of the proxy server.

    • (Conditional) If the proxy is authentication-based, set the value of subscriptionproxyuser to the name of the proxy user.

    • (Conditional) If the proxy is authentication-based, set the value of subscriptionproxypassword to the password associated with the proxy user name.

    • It is recommended to use the zman srpp command to specify an obfuscated password instead of specifying the raw password.

    • (Conditional) If the proxy server uses an NTLM realm, set the value of subscriptionuseNTLM to true. By default, the value is false.

  3. Restart the ZENworks services.

Accessing the CDN: The following URL must be open to access the CDN: https://microfocus-2dcb60a8-26c9-4560-9cc2-34a16ea5f6e6.2d7dd.cdn.bitdefender.net

Proxy Server Settings: This setting is useful for restrictive environments where you do not want all of your production servers to have Internet access. For more information, see System Update Settings in the ZENworks System Updates Reference.
