Setup CVMFS Proxy
Setup CVMFS Proxy server
If you want more speed in a region one way could be to setup another Stratum 1 server or a proxy. We currently don’t run any proxy servers but it would be important for using it on a cluster.
Setup a CVMFS proxy server
sudo yum install -y squid
Open the squid.confand use the following configuration
sudo vi /etc/squid/squid.conf
# List of local IP addresses (separate IPs and/or CIDR notation) allowed to access your local proxy
#acl local_nodes src YOUR_CLIENT_IPS
# Destination domains that are allowed
acl stratum_ones dstdomain .neurodesk.org
#acl stratum_ones dstdom_regex YOUR_REGEX
# Squid port
http_port 3128
# Deny access to anything which is not part of our stratum_ones ACL.
http_access deny !stratum_ones
# Only allow access from our local machines
#http_access allow local_nodes
http_access allow localhost
# Finally, deny all other access to this proxy
http_access deny all
minimum_expiry_time 0
maximum_object_size 1024 MB
cache_mem 128 MB
maximum_object_size_in_memory 128 KB
# 5 GB disk cache
cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 5000 16 256
sudo squid -k parse
sudo systemctl start squid
sudo systemctl enable squid
sudo systemctl status squid
sudo systemctl restart squid
Then add the proxy to the cvmfs config:
CVMFS_HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy-address:3128"
