Before we can start installing Collectl, we need to add the EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) repository. This repository provides additional software packages that are not available in the default Fedora repositories.
To add the EPEL repository, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo dnf install epel-release
Enter your password when prompted, and press Enter.
Now that we have added the EPEL repository, we can install Collectl using the following command:
sudo dnf install collectl
Press Enter to confirm the installation, and wait for the installation process to complete.
To verify that Collectl has been installed successfully, you can run the following command:
collectl -v
This will display the version number of Collectl. If you see a version number, then Collectl has been installed successfully.
To start using Collectl, you can run the following command:
sudo collectl
This will start Collectl in interactive mode. To exit from Collectl, you can press Ctrl+C.
You can also run Collectl in non-interactive mode by running the following command:
sudo collectl -sC
This will start Collectl in non-interactive mode and display the output to the console.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install Collectl on Fedora Server Latest. Collectl is a powerful utility for collecting system performance data, and can be useful for troubleshooting and monitoring your system.
