These instructions are for installation packages made prior to the 2016 introduction of the Opmantek Installer.

Preparation

Installation Steps

Transfer the opCharts tarball 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:

    # become root
sudo sh
# if the tarball was saved in a different location, adjust the following command 
cd
tar xzf opCharts-x86_64-2.0.1.tar.gz

  • Start the interactive installer and follow its instructions:

    sudo sh
cd opCharts-2.0.1
./installer

  • When the installer finishes, opCharts 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.
