How To Keep Custom Variables During Upgrade - Legacy Mode

Users often have custom variables defined per their system, that are defined post-installation. These variables are kept in the docker-compose.yml.

To keep these custom variables during an upgrade procedure and avoid resetting them to default values, please follow these steps:

• Create a file named customer.env and place it in the /usr/local/ericomshield/ folder

• Add desired custom variables to this file. Syntax is:

  export VAR_NAME="$value"
  

• During the upgrade process, variables defined in customer.env file are used to replace default values

Examples

• To use a custom subnet (different from Shield default one - 10.0.6.0) add this line to the file:

  export SUB_NET="192.168.5.0/24"
  

• To use a custom proxy (different from Shield default one - 3128) add this line to the file:

  export SHIELD_PROXY_PORT="4456"
  

• To define the remote browsers locale language add this line to the file:

  export RB_LANGUAGE="ja-JP"
