Description
Once Job Server is running on a separate droplet, requests from the backend to Job Server will be blocked by the firewall.
We will need to proxy:
- Release requests
- Airlock authentication
We can do this in advance of the Job Server migration. It will also let us monitor whether the extra proxying causes any latency issues.
Steps:
- Add nginx conf for proxying release.opensafely.org (PR)
- Add release.opensafely.org domain to proxy dokku app on dokku4 and run letsencrypt:enable
- Remove release.opensafely.org domain from job-server dokku app on dokku4
- Remove jobs.opensafely.org from L3 /etc/hosts
