Kibana is a data visualization and exploration tool that works together with Elasticsearch, Logstash, and other data-related tools. In this tutorial, we're going to show you how to install Kibana on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before proceeding, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
First, open a terminal window and download the latest version of Kibana from the official Elastic website using the following command:
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/kibana/kibana-<VERSION>-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
Replace
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/kibana/kibana-7.9.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
Once the download is complete, extract the Kibana archive using the following command:
tar -xvzf kibana-<VERSION>-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
This will extract the Kibana files into a directory called kibana-<VERSION>.
Open the kibana.yml configuration file using your favorite text editor:
nano kibana-<VERSION>/config/kibana.yml
Find the following line:
#server.host: "localhost"
Uncomment it by removing the # and set the IP address of your server or 0.0.0.0 to bind to all available network interfaces:
server.host: "0.0.0.0"
Save and close the file.
Start Kibana by running the following command:
./kibana-<VERSION>/bin/kibana
This will start Kibana on port 5601.
To access Kibana, open a web browser and go to http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:5601.
If you're accessing Kibana from a remote machine, make sure to open port 5601 on your server's firewall.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Kibana on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now start exploring and visualizing your data with Kibana.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
