The manual installation method for installing SaltStack Config is an alternative to the standard installation method but is not recommended. These steps are included for your reference if you would like to understand every procedure that is taken when using the installer or running an installation scenario using one of the standard installation scenarios.
These instructions are intended for advanced users who need granular control over the installation process, and who are familiar with PostgreSQL and Redis database configuration. You are strongly encouraged to use one of the standard installation scenarios instead.
The steps below are confirmed for a standalone deployment of SaltStack Config (where all related services reside on a single host). Advanced users will likely adapt these instructions to their deployment. If you are not an advanced user, use the standard installation scenarios instead or consider using consulting services. To begin the standard installation process, see Installation overview.
The manual installation method supports installation on the following operating systems:
- RedHat or CentOS (recommended)
- SUSE 12
- SUSE 15
