Checking the Source Server Environments

Each Linux source server must meet the following requirements:

  • The available space of the root partition is no less than 200 MB.
  • Its time is the same as the standard time. Otherwise, the source Agent may fail to be registered.
  • The rsync library is installed. It is usually pre-installed on mainstream systems. If you are not sure, run the following command to check:
    rsync -v
    If the rsync library is not installed, run the following command to install it:
    • CentOS:
      yum -y install rsync
    • Ubuntu:
      apt-get -y install rsync
    • Debian:
      apt-get -y install rsync
    • SUSE:
      zypper install rsync
    • For other distributions, refer to the official website documentation.
