Fault Tolerant Data Aggregator fails to change to Activate.
We run the "./dadaemon maintenance" or "./dadaemon activate" command but the state never changes in the PC Portal web UI. We also see no messages in the consul-ext.log file on the Data Aggregator the state change is made on. This indicates the request isn't making to the DA Proxy host thus it doesn't return the request for the DA to make the state change.
A proxy was recently set up in the environment between the Fault Tolerant Data Aggregators and the Fault Tolerant Proxy server hosts.
Proxy configurations can normally be identified with the command "echo $http_proxy". If this returns a host, there is a proxy configured. If it returns nothing it's unlikely a proxy is involved in the problem.
An alternative that might also show whether or not proxies are configured is "env | grep -i proxy".
The dadaemon script is not set up to work properly in the presence of a proxy between the Fault Tolerant Data Aggregators and the Fault Tolerant Proxy server hosts.
