Installation

1. Download the worker installer (bash script) to your Linux system and grant execute permission to the file owner (user or group) using the following chmod command:

To download the worker installer, login to GitProtect Management Service using a web browser, then go to Settings > Advanced > Workers and click Download agent button. The Download agent window will open — click the appropriate worker version to download it.

chmod +x xoperoclient.sh

1. Next, run the script using the following command:

./xoperoclient.sh or bash xoperoclient.sh

Running the script along with sudo command

The above script should be initiated using an account with administrative privileges— because of that it might be required to use the sudo command simultaneously (as in the above example).

1. Accept the END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT to proceed.

1. Next, enter the IP address in the Address field (including the protocol and port) and click OK to finish the installation. Your address can be found in GitProtect Management Service — the system will display it once you start downloading the worker installer.

1. Now that GitProtect worker is installed, you can activate it in the GitProtect Management Service web panel and start protecting your data.
