Splunk Heavy Forwarder Proxy Config

Mallappa
Observer

Hello Team, 

I am trying to setup proxy in splunk Heavy Forwarder.

I did it by setting up environment variable http_proxy, but splunk python is not honouring the environment variable setup in Linux machine where HF is installed.

If I run python script it will get the data from proxy, if I run the same script with opt/splunk/etc cmd python it is not going to proxy.

 

Is there any way we can make splunk to honour environment variables.
