Installation Steps

As of February 2016, opCharts is distributed in a self-extracting download format that simplifies the installation process quite a bit. More information on running the installer can be found HERE: The Opmantek Installer

Transfer the opReports tarball installer 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.

Make a record of where you put the tarball (root's home directory or /tmp are good locations).

  • Become root and unpack the tarball:Start the interactive installer and follow its instructions. The installer now fully covers both initial installations as well as upgrades from earlier versions of opReports.

     

    Code Block
    # become root
    sudo sh
    # if the tarball was saved in a different location, adjust the following command 
    cd
    tar xzf  ./opReports-Linux-x86_64-3.0.0.tgz

     

     

    Start the interactive installer and follow its instructions:

     

    Code Block
    sudo sh
    cd opReports-3.0.0/
    ./installer 7.run

  • The installer will interactively guide you through the steps of installing opReports. Please make sure to read the on-screen prompts carefully.
  • When the installer finishes, opReports 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.
