Automation Suite on Linux Installation Guide
Last updated Apr 19, 2024
install-uipath.sh parameters
The
install-uipath.sh manual installer allows you to customize the installation experience without running the interactive installer (installUiPathAS.sh).
While the manual installer is suitable for advanced scenario, the deployment templates and the interactive installer are still the recommended options.
The
install-uipath.sh installer is available in as-installer.zip. For download instructions, see Downloading installation packages.
Specify the input
.json file.
input.json refers to the cluster_config.json that defines the parameters, settings, and preferences applied to the UiPath® services deployed via Automation Suite. You
need to update this file to change the defaults and use any advanced configuration for your cluster. For details, refer to
Manual: Advanced installation experience.
Used only with
-k. Determines the type of node to be joined to an existing cluster. Allowed values: <server|agent>.
Run all installers in order. If no installation is explicitly selected,
–install-all will be implied.
Specify the path to the offline bundle. Indicates that the installation method is tarball.
Optional flag that can be used with
--offline-bundle or --optional-offline-bundle. Specify the parent directory for the temporary offline installation folder. Defaults to /tmp.
Used with the tarball installation method, performs the installation of all prerequisites.
Skips the installation of prerequisites during the online installation method. By default, prerequisites are installed.
Specify path to the kubeconfig file. When this flag is missing, it defaults to
/etc/rancher/rke2/rke2.yaml.
Install Cilium CNI (Container Network Interface) to replace the default Canal. Only used during upgrade. You cannot use it with any installation flag.
Skip prerequisite checks during installation. Note that you cannot skip RPM package validation.
Specify the targeted machines for installation. Provide comma-separated IP addresses or hostnames of all the machines.
Compare the current configuration file with the cluster state. It compares the
input.json file with the current cluster configuration.
- Install the Kubernetes cluster components on the VM where it is executed, using the online installation method.
