Prerequisites
- A Linux server with root/sudo access
- An active Xitoring account
- Outbound HTTPS connectivity (port 443)
Installation Steps
1. Get Your Installation Command
Log in to your Xitoring dashboard and navigate to Servers → Add Server. You'll see a one-liner installation command unique to your account.
2. Run the Installer
curl -s https://xitoring.com/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --key YOUR_API_KEY
The installer automatically detects your distribution (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian, RHEL, etc.) and installs the appropriate package.
3. Verify Installation
sudo systemctl status xitogent
You should see the agent running. Within 60 seconds, your server will appear in the dashboard with CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics.
Supported Distributions
- Ubuntu 18.04+
- Debian 10+
- CentOS 7+
- RHEL 7+
- Amazon Linux 2
- Fedora 34+
- Rocky Linux 8+
Troubleshooting
If the agent doesn't start, check the logs at /var/log/xitogent/xitogent.log and ensure outbound HTTPS traffic is allowed through your firewall.
