In this quick tutorial, we are going to show you how to manually install the Quobyte Linux Client in your machines. We will also show you how to install it using the Quobyte script.
1
|
First, ssh into the machine you want to install the Quobyte Linux client on.
|
2
|
Then access the root directory by running the following command: |
3
|
Next, cd into the "yum.repos.d" directory: cd /etc/yum.repos.d/![]() |
4
|
Now, download the Quobyte repo for Centos 7 with wget: wget https://packages.quobyte.com/repo/v3/rpm/CentOS_7/quobyte.repo![]()
|
5
|
Now, we are going to install the Quobyte client:
|
6
|
Once the installation is completed, we need to create the "quobyte" directory: mkdir /quobyte![]() |
7
|
Next, we need to edit the "client-service.cfg" file, and we can do so with vi:
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
8
|
Now, start the Quobyte client: systemctl start quobyte-client![]() |
9
|
You can check the status of the client with the following command:
![]() |
10
|
Now, you can cd into "/quobyte/" and check the content in there:
|
11
|
Lastly, you need to enable the quobyte-client by running the following command: systemctl enable quobyte-client |
Your client is now ready to be used. In the next section, we will show you how to install the Quobyte Linux Client with the Quobyte install script
1
|
After you install Quobyte, the installer gives you the information on how to add servers and clients: ![]() |
2
|
However, before you can use the "install add" script provided by Quobyte, you need to change the permissions on the install. We can do it as follow: chmod +x install![]() |
3
|
Now, you can paste the line of code provided by the installer. You just need to add “./” at the beginning, and remember to change the "@remote-host" to the IP address of your instance: ./install add-client –qns-id 87rhrsu8wju user@remote-host![]()

After running the line of code from above, the linux client will be installed in your machine, and you will be able to cd into "/quobyte/" and then access any existing volume in your cluster. ![]() |
