Issue/Introduction

- Proxy configuration is enabled.

- The issue happens both with CA certs and self-signed certs generated from Aria Suite Lifecycle. 

- Adding the new cert to the trusted certs in vIDM does not change the behavior. 

Environment

vIDM 3.3.7

Cause

Resolution

To resolve this issue please apply the following steps: 

- Add the proxy certificate to the trusted store on the vIDM nodes. 

- Include the vIDM fqdn in the "non-proxied hosts" list within the proxy configuration.
