Installation Instructions

Prerequisites:

• One of the following Oses:
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.0 or higher
  • Oracle Linux 6.5 or higher
  • Ubuntu 10.04 or higher
  • CentOS release 5 or higher

  • Amazon Linux AMI release 2013.03 or higher
  • Fedora release 12 or higher
  • Suse Linux 11 or higher
• OpenSSL v0.9.8k or higher
• Root access
• The Install script requires wget to retrieve content, and curl to test/verify access to our data collection servers (104.197.11.97) over port 443, either directly or through a corporate proxy.

Note: The Linux agent/agentless approach requires a user with root permissions to get PID-to-network mapping, certain hardware details, and data on logical/physical disk volumes. Become root user either through "sudo -s" or "su", most systems use sudo.  

Procedure:

Launch the application from your Partner Dashboard or login directly here. Open the Settings page by clicking the username in the upper right-hand corner and select Settings. Navigate to Agent Setup > Assess and select the Linux tab. 

Step 1:  Export your customer key.

export CLOUDAMIZE_CUSTOMER_KEY=<YOUR CUSTOMER KEY>

Step 2:  Execute the following command to install an agent.

sh <(curl -s https://agentmanager1.cloudamize.com/cxf/downloadFile/installCloudamizeAgentV2.sh)

If FQDN resolution is not permitted use the command below.

sh <(curl -s -k https://104.197.11.97/cxf/downloadFile/installCloudamizeAgentV2.sh)

If you want to route the data through your own proxy server, click the checkbox as shown in the image below, and use the following command.

sh <(curl --proxy https://www.yourproxy.com:proxy_port -s https://agentmanager1.cloudamize.com/cxf/downloadFile/installCloudamizeAgentV2.sh) <https://www.your_own_proxy.com> <proxy_port>

If you want to use your own proxy server and the server requires authentication, click the designated checkbox and use the following, updated command.
