Duplicati is a backup software that can help you to protect your data from data loss. It is an open-source solution and can be easily installed on different platforms.
In this tutorial, we will go through the installation process of Duplicati on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before we start with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to update the system packages to their latest version. Run the following command in the terminal:
sudo dnf update
This will check for available updates and install them if any are found.
Duplicati requires Mono, a software platform that allows developers to build cross-platform applications. To install Mono, we need to add the Mono repository to the system.
Run the following commands to add the Mono repository:
sudo rpmkeys --import "http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x3fa7e0328081bff6a14da29aa6a19b38d3d831ef"
sudo su -c 'curl https://download.mono-project.com/repo/centos8-stable.repo | tee /etc/yum.repos.d/mono-centos8-stable.repo'
Once you have added the repository, run the command below to install Mono:
sudo dnf install mono-complete
This will install all the required dependencies for Mono.
Now that we have installed the required dependencies, we can install Duplicati.
Run the following command to download and install Duplicati:
sudo dnf install duplicati
This will install the latest version of Duplicati on Fedora CoreOS.
Once the installation is complete, we can start Duplicati.
Run the following command to start the Duplicati service:
sudo systemctl start duplicati.service
To check the status of the service, run the following command:
sudo systemctl status duplicati.service
If the service is running successfully, you should see a green "active" status.
Now that Duplicati is up and running, you can access the web interface through your web browser.
Open your web browser and enter the following URL:
http://localhost:8200/ngax/index.html
You should now see the Duplicati web interface.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install Duplicati on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. By following these easy steps, you can efficiently set up and start using Duplicati for backups.
