Getting ready
Before installing a stream host in a Linux environment, there are a few steps that need to be completed.
Step 1
Download the stream host installation file from Data Stream Designer by following the steps below:
- Open the Collections page from the left-hand menu.
- Select the collection you would like to use.
- Click on Download Host.
- Select Linux RHEL 7+(x64).
- Click on Download.
Step 2
Next, place the downloaded file on your Linux machine.
Step 3
Install the dotnet-runtime-2.1 package. To do that, follow the instructions, which are available at https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/linux-package-manager/rhel/runtime-2.1.11.
Step 4
Download the connection profile from Data Stream Designer and put it in root ~/ folder.
Installation
When you are ready, you may install the stream host by using the following command:
- sudo yum localinstall <path to downloaded installer>/xmpro-stream-host-3.0.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
Uninstall
To uninstall a stream host, use the following command:
- sudo yum remove xmpro-stream-host
The stream host will then be removed. Some of the files, such as logs, may not be removed because they were created after the install. If you open Stream Hosts now, you will see the stream host is not listed on the page anymore.
