Install with production configuration

This page describes StackState v4.4.x.

The StackState 4.4 version range is End of Life (EOL) and no longer supported. We encourage customers still running the 4.4 version range to upgrade to a more recent release.

Go to the documentation for the latest StackState release.

StackState prefers Kubernetes! In the future we will move away from Linux support. Read how to migrate from the Linux install of StackState to the Kubernetes install.

Requirements

Before starting the installation, ensure your system(s) meet StackState's production deployment installation requirements.

Two-node deployment architecture

The StackState production environment requires two nodes a StackGraph and a StackState node.

Configure StackState to run in the two-node setup requires the following steps:

Preparing the StackGraph node

1. Install the package using the instruction for Installing StackState, using PRODUCTION-STACKGRAPH as SETUP configuration parameter.

2. Start the StackGraph process as described in Starting / Stopping.

To prepare an additional node for running a StackState component, follow these steps:

1. Install the package using the instruction for Installing StackState, using PRODUCTION-STACKSTATE as SETUP configuration parameter.

Further Configuring StackState

After you have installed StackState, refer to the following pages for configuration instructions:

• Configuring authentication

• Reverse Proxy (recommended setup) or TLS without reverse proxy

sudo systemctl start stackgraph.service

sudo systemctl stop stackgraph.service

Starting and Stopping StackState
