Installing a KUMA agent on Linux assets

To install a KUMA agent to a Linux asset:

  1. Log in to the server where you want to install the service.
  2. Create the following directories:
    • /opt/kaspersky/kuma/
    • /opt/kaspersky/agent/
  3. Copy the "kuma" file to the /opt/kaspersky/kuma/ folder. The file is located in the installer in the /kuma-ansible-installer/roles/kuma/files/ folder.

    Make sure the kuma file has sufficient rights to run.

  4. Execute the following command:

    sudo /opt/kaspersky/kuma/kuma agent --core https://<KUMA Core server FQDN>:<port used by KUMA Core server for internal communication (port 7210 by default)> --id <service ID copied from the KUMA web interface> --wd <path to the directory that will contain the files of the installed agent. If this flag is not specified, the files will be stored in the directory where the kuma file is located>

    Example: sudo /opt/kaspersky/kuma/kuma agent --core https://kuma.example.com:7210 --id XXXX --wd /opt/kaspersky/kuma/agent/XXXX

The KUMA agent is installed on the Linux asset. The agent forwards data to KUMA, and you can set up a collector to receive this data.
