Installation Steps

Transfer the opConfig installer file onto the server in question, either by direct download from the Opmantek website, or from your desktop with scp or sftp or a similar file transfer tool.
The installer file is not needed after installation, hence root's home directory or /tmp are good locations to put it in.

  • Start the interactive installer and follow its instructions:

    Code Block
    sudo sh ./opConfig-Linux-x86_64-3.0.7.run
    ...
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    opConfig (3.0.7) Installation script
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    ...
    This installer will install opConfig into /usr/local/omk.
    To select a different installation location please rerun the
    installer with the -t option.
  • The installer will interactively guide you through the steps of installing opConfig. Please make sure to read the on-screen prompts carefully.
  • When the installer finishes, opConfig is installed into /usr/local/omk, and the default configuration files are in /usr/local/omk/conf, ready for your initial config adjustments.
  • A detailed log of the installation process is saved as /usr/local/omk/install.log, and subsequent upgrades or installations of other Opmantek products will add to that logfile.
  • For detailed information about the interactive installer please check the Opmantek Installer page.

open conf/opCommon.nmis in an editor, go to the database section and change the server, username and password to reflect your MongoDB installation.
The result should look similar to the following (but there might be extra settings related to other products):
