thx thx - but may i ask? i do not recall installing it specifically. i do recall following this link to install the monitoring.
https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/install/roles/role-monit.html
i either mistyped one of the commands/steps, or maybe there is some error in the steps?
not complaining, but just flagging my steps.
thank you all again for your help.
Please don't worry about being complaining 😊 A healthy discussion could clear doubt from users mind and provide us improvement points. The package service-discover-agent exists in the monitoring role, may bee that's why it got installed in the system.
The roles description and installation processes are explained individually, therefore you can see each role installation has service-discover-agent package. But the key facts are:
- If you are installing all the roles on the same server/node along with service-discover-server package, you do not need to install service-discover-agent as service-discover-server can be both server/agent.
- If you are installing few roles on the same server/node where service-discover-server does not exist, you can install service-discover-agent once but not for all roles individually.
Hope it helps.
