Appliance proxies
Configuring a proxy on a NetBackup Appliance has been a nightmare for years. Finding all of the needed certs is entirely CLI-driven and installation into the multiple appropriate locations before the proxy is authorized in the first place is a giant time-sink. And the entire communication chain may stop working randomly anyway at the drop of a hat, requiring you to redo the entire proxy setup from scratch.
Are any improvements being made in v3.2 to this mess ? Maybe something simple like "You've selected myserver.mydomain.com as a proxy. Here are the certificates in the communication path to that proxy - do you want to add them in: (yes/no) ?"
