Sysdig is a powerful open-source system monitoring and troubleshooting tool that provides deep system visibility to users. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Sysdig on Void Linux.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following requirements:
The first step is to update the package database and upgrade any existing packages to the latest version. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Suy
Sysdig requires some dependencies to be installed on the system. Run the following command in terminal to install these dependencies:
sudo xbps-install -Sy libstdc++ librdkafka
Download the latest version of Sysdig from the official website using the following command:
wget https://github.com/draios/sysdig/releases/download/<version>/sysdig_<version>_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
Replace <version> with the latest version of Sysdig available on the website.
Extract the downloaded tarball using the following command:
tar -xvf sysdig_<version>_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
Now run the following command in terminal to install Sysdig:
cd sysdig
sudo ./install.sh
The script will install Sysdig, its kernel module, and dependencies automatically.
To verify the installation, run the following command in terminal:
sudo sysdig -v
This command will display the version number of Sysdig if installed correctly.
Congratulations! You have now successfully installed Sysdig on Void Linux. You can now use Sysdig for system monitoring and troubleshooting.
