This topic provides guidance on installing Package Security Manager and verifying your installation.
These instructions assume that you have completed environment preparation.

Installing Package Security Manager

  1. Download your installer by running the following command:
    If you do not have root access, you must add yourself to the docker group by running the following command before you install:
  2. Run one of the following installation commands. Choose the command that corresponds with your setup.
    To include Grafana monitoring dashboards in your installation of Package Security Manager, add the following argument to your installation command:

Login credentials for these profiles are shown during the installer output. Use these credentials for your initial logins, and update them as soon as possible.
    The Prometheus password cannot currently be updated. Save your password somewhere secure!
The installer directory contains both the installation script (install.sh) and the docker-compose.yml file, which defines how Package Security Manager services are run.
By default, /opt/anaconda/repo is the file path for the installation folder. You can either create the folder manually by assigning write access to the current user, or use the -b (--base-install-dir) parameter to specify the folder for your installation.
