Fluentd is an open-source tool that allows you to unify the data collection and consumption for better observability. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Fluentd on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation of Fluentd, we need to update our system to ensure we have the latest software packages.
sudo dnf update
We can install Fluentd from the official package repository via the command-line interface using the following command:
sudo dnf install -y td-agent
After execution, the package will be downloaded, and the installation process will begin.
Now we need to start the Fluentd service and enable the service to start automatically when the system boots up:
sudo systemctl start td-agent
sudo systemctl enable td-agent
Fluentd installation is complete now. To verify the installed version of Fluentd, run the following command:
sudo td-agent --version
If Fluentd is installed successfully, it will print the version of Fluentd.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Fluentd on Fedora CoreOS Latest using the official package repository. Now you can start collecting and processing logs from your system.
