Introduction

Opmantek products include a sophisticated installation system which automates the installation of all dependant packages and libraries.  Using the Operating System provided patching system  (yum, apt-get, etc) is the recommended way of installing and maintaining your Opmantek server.

If your servers do not have a connection to the internet, you should have some method in place for them to access the repositories, through proxy or local mirrors.  Opmantek has documented several very easy techniques for patching linux servers, you can find the details here: Virtual Machine Maintenance: Updating Software

Regarding Dependancies

This document is a list of the required modules and packages for all of our software, Opmantek is committed to keeping this document up to date and we would welcome you let us know or any corrections or errors you might find.

Opmantek list our dependancies, each of the packages we depend on may or may not depend on other packages, e.g. we require RRDTool for NMIS and RRDTool requires many other graphics libraries to do its magic.  

Dependancies are extracted from the source in /usr/local/opmojo/bin/installer_hooks/*dependancies

Common Packages and Modules

RRDTool

RRDTool is required by NMIS and a special version including source code is included in opCharts.

There are YUM and APT-GET packages available.

MongoDB

MongoDB is required by the following products:

  • opFlow
  • opEvents
  • opConfig
  • opAddress
  • opTrend

Details about installation are in MongoDB Installation, for Red Hat and CentOS it should be downloaded from MongoDB.org and installed as per our documenation.

NMIS

NMIS CentOS dependancies are determined by running the NMIS installer

./install.pl listdeps=true

Then when asked if connected to internet, answer "no", then the installer will tell you the dependancies.

CentOS/Red Hat YUM Packages

autoconf automake gcc cvs cairo cairo-devel pango pango-devel glib glib-devel libxml2 libxml2-devel gd gd-devel libXpm-devel libXpm openssl openssl-devel net-snmp net-snmp-libs net-snmp-utils net-snmp-perl perl-Net-SSLeay perl-JSON-XS httpd fping make groff perl-CPAN crontabs dejavu* perl-libwww-perl perl-Net-DNS perl-DBI perl-Net-SMTPS perl-Net-SMTP-SSL uuid-perl perl-Time-modules perl-CGI net-snmp-perl perl-Proc-ProcessTable perl-Authen-SASL perl-Crypt-PasswdMD5 perl-Net-SNPP perl-Net-SNMP perl-GD rrdtool perl-rrdtool perl-Test-Deep

Perl Packages

Many perl packages can be installed from YUM, the others from CPAN, the list of packages can be extracted by running /usr/local/nmis8/admin/check_cpan_libraries.pl, provide the location of NMIS source.  Many required libraries listed are included with Perl itself.

Time::HiRes JSON::XS Net::DNS Net::SMTPS Net::SNMP Net::SNPP Data::Dumper UUID::Tiny Time::ParseDate Statistics::Lite Crypt::PasswdMD5 Proc::Queue Proc::ProcessTable Test::Deep::NoTest

The following Perl Modules are Optional depending on what Authentiction features people require.

Net::LDAP Net::LDAPS IO::Socket::SSL Crypt::UnixCrypt Authen::TacacsPlus Authen::Simple::RADIUS

Installing RRDTool as per the installation guide will result in the RRDs perl library being created.

The perl libraries SNMP_util and SNMP_Session are included in the NMIS install folder /usr/local/nmis8/install/SNMP_Session-1.12.tar.gz
