Server Install from RPM

To install your server from the Sicura Enterprise YUM repository, we’ve provided a pre-configured RPM package. Installing the package will install the GPG key and configure the repository correctly.

Prerequisites

SIMP Server requires a Puppet server to function. If you are not already running Puppet in your environment, install Puppet Community Edition by running:

yum install puppetserver

SIMP can also integrate with Puppet Enterprise. Please contact us if you need assistance installing and configuring Puppet Enterprise.

Install the Current Version

SIMP Server is currently only supported on Red Hat 7 and CentOS 7. Run the following to configure the Sicura Enterprise YUM repository:

yum install https://download.simp-project.com/sicura-release-enterprise.el7.rpm

The Sicura Enterprise YUM repository contains a package for each version of Sicura Enterprise.

Run the following to install the latest version of Sicura Enterprise:

yum install sicura-enterprise

Install Previous Version

If you need to install an older version of SIMP Enterprise, such as 6.5.5-1, include the version as a suffix to the package name.

yum install simp-enterprise-6.5.5-1

Post Install Configuration

After installation, configure and start SIMP by following the Initial SIMP Server configuration instructions.

After the simp config and simp bootstrap commands have been executed, the enterprise modules and files will be available to all nodes.
