Install Zenoss under Linux

I am using the Zenoss version: 3.1.0, System version: RHEL6.4

Installation Preparation

First, the installation of Zenoss requires support from software such as MySQL and SNMP, using Yum to install:

Yum-y install MySQL mysql-server net-snmp net-snmp-utils mysql-devel

After MySQL is installed, make sure you can log in using the root user.

Service mysqld Restart

Mysql-u root-p

In addition, after the installation process may be prompted to need autoconf,svn,gcc-c++ and other software, yum installation.

Start installation

First create a new Zenoss User:

Useradd Zenoss

Set Environment variables:

Vim/etc/profile

Add at end of file

Export Zenhome=/usr/local/zenoss

Export Pythonpath= $ZENHOME/lib/python

Export path= $ZENHOME/bin:/$ZENHOME/sbin: $PATH

The source command is required to make it effective:

Source/etc/profile

Create a Zenoss working directory and make it a master Zenoss account:

mkdir/usr/local/zenoss/

chmod Zenoss/usr/local/zenoss

Download the Zenoss installation package (e.g. wget):

cd/tmp/

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/zenoss/zenoss-3.1.0.tar.gz

TAR-ZXVF zenoss-3.1.0.tar.gz

CD zenoss-3.1.0

./install.sh

There is a step in the installation process that asks you: does want me to keep your existing database? (y/n)

Select N to create a new database to use for the Zenoss.

Finally, modify the properties for the Zensocket directory:

Chown Root:zenoss/usr/local/zenoss/bin/zensocket

chmod 04750/usr/local/zenoss/bin/zensocket

To open Zenoss with a script:

/usr/local/zenoss/bin/zenoss restart

After a long wait, enter the host address in the browser: 8080, you can use.

The installation was successful.
