Please note that the software versions referenced in this document might have changed and might not be available/working unless updated.

More details are available in the README.md file. If you are running Linux on Power (ppc64le) you should look for ppc64le packages at the Power DevOps website.

All commands should be run as root or through sudo.

Install the Java Runtime from repository

zypper install java-11-openjdk-headless

Download and Install InfluxDB

wget https://dl.influxdata.com/influxdb/releases/influxdb-1.8.10.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh influxdb-1.8.10.x86_64.rpm
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable influxdb
systemctl start influxdb

Run the influx cli command and create the svci database.

Download and Install Grafana

wget https://dl.grafana.com/oss/release/grafana-9.1.3-1.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh --nodeps grafana-9.1.3-1.x86_64.rpm
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable grafana-server
systemctl start grafana-server

When logged in to Grafana (port 3000, admin/admin) create a datasource that points to the local InfluxDB. Now import the provided dashboards.

Download and Install SVCi

wget https://bitbucket.org/mnellemann/svci/downloads/svci-0.0.1-1_all.rpm
rpm -ivh svci-0.0.1-1_all.rpm
cp /opt/svci/doc/svci.toml /etc/
cp /opt/svci/doc/svci.service /etc/systemd/system/
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable svci

Now modify /etc/svci.toml and test your setup by running /opt/svci/bin/svci -d manually and verify connection to SVC and InfluxDB. Afterwards start service with systemctl start svci .
