Monitoring Agent on Linux

The monitoring agent is supported on the following Linux versions:

• Astra Linux
• ALT Linux
• AlterOS
• RED OS

Installing the Monitoring Agent

For the monitoring agent to function correctly, if working on Astra Linux via remote access (RDP), you must enable the record extension in xorg parameters. To do this, you need to:

1. In the file /etc/X11/fly-dm/fly-dmrc, add +extension RECORD to the ServerArgsLocal= variable:
   ServerArgsLocal=... +extension RECORD
   

2. Add /usr/libexec/OperavixAgent/agent_inspector and /usr/libexec/OperavixAgent/agent_service to the /etc/X11/trusted file.
3. Add the following section to the file /etc/X11/xrdp/xorg.conf:
   Section "Extensions"
       Option "RECORD" "Enable"
   EndSection
   

4. Reboot the computer.

When installing, the installer must not be located in the user directory. For example, you can create a folder /opt/repo, place the installer there, and run it from there.

Command to install the agent on Astra Linux:

# apt install /opt/repo/agent.deb

To install on Alt Linux, enter the command:

# apt-get install /opt/repo/agent.rpm

To install on AlterOS or RED OS, enter the command:

# rpm --nosignature --nodigest -iv path to file (example: rpm --nosignature --nodigest -iv /tmp/agent_setup.rpm)

Updating the Monitoring Agent

When updating the monitoring agent on Alt Linux and Astra Linux, the installer must not be located in the user directory. For example, you can create a folder /opt/repo, place the installer there, and run it from there.

To update the agent on Astra Linux, use the command:

# apt install /opt/repo/agent.deb

To update the agent on Alt Linux, use the command:

# apt-get install /opt/repo/agent.rpm

To update the agent on AlterOS or RED OS, use the command:

# rpm --nosignature --nodigest -iv /tmp/agent_setup.rpm

Removing the Monitoring Agent

To remove the agent on Astra Linux, enter the command:

# apt remove operavix-agent

To remove the agent on Alt Linux, enter the command:

# apt-get remove operavix-agent

To remove the agent on AlterOS or RED OS, enter the command:

# rpm --nosignature --nodigest -e operavix-agent

The operavix-agent parameter in all commands is the package name.
