| Step | Description |
|---|
| 1 | Installation on a Linux management system on customer premises (typical installation): - Log in to the Linux management system as the root user (denoted by the # prompt).
- Copy the installation package to your local Linux management system (from one of the sources described above).
| Installation on the Charon-SSP host system in the cloud or in a VMware environment (optional): - Log in and become the root user on the Charon host using the following commands:
$ ssh -i <path-to-private-key> sshuser@<cloud-instance-ip>
# sudo -i - Please note:
- The SSH key for logging in is not required for an on-premises installation that allows login by username/password.
- If the Charon host was not installed using a prepackaged marketplace image, the username may be different and the installation package will have to be copied to the Charon host in a separate step.
|
| 2 | Go to the directory where the package has been stored: # cd <package-location>
|
| 3 | Unpacking the shell archive: |
| - Run the script:
# sh charon-gui-<version>.sh - Read the end-user agreement and accept it.
- The RPM packages will be extracted in a subdirectory (charon-gui-<version>) of your current working directory
|
| 4 | Installing the package: |
| Assuming you are in the subdirectory containing the RPM file, use the following commands for supported Linux systems with RPM package management: - Linux 7.x: #
yum install <filename-of-package> - Linux 8.x and higher:
# dnf install<filename-of-package>
(For an installation on the cloud host system, check if xorg-x11-xauth is already installed if X11-Forwarding is planned.) |
| For systems with Debian package management (Ubuntu):
# dpkg -i <filename-of-package> |
