6.1. Managing the Proxy Service
Since the RHN Proxy Server consists of a multitude of individual components, Red Hat provides a
script called
rhn-proxy
, that allows you to stop, start, or retrieve status on the Proxy.
/usr/sbin/rhn-proxy start
/usr/sbin/rhn-proxy stop
/usr/sbin/rhn-proxy restart
/usr/sbin/rhn-proxy status
Use the
rhn-proxy
command to shut down and start the entire RHN Proxy Server and retrieve status
messages from all of its services at once.
6.2. Log Files
Virtually every troubleshooting step should start with a look at the associated log file or files. These
files provide invaluable information about the activity that has taken place on the device or within the
application and can be used to monitor performance and ensure proper configuration. See
Table 6.1,
“Log Files”
for the paths to all relevant log files:
Component
Log File Location
Apache Web server
/var/log/httpd/
directory
Squid
/var/log/squid/
directory
RHN Proxy Broker Server
/var/log/rhn/rhn_proxy_broker.log
RHN SSL Redirect Server
/var/log/rhn/rhn_proxy_redirect.log
Red Hat Update Agent

configuring an RHN Proxy Server solution.
