Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 ELS

Installation

Prerequisites

  • A valid TuxCare ELS license key
  • Root access to the server
  • TCP port 443 open to cln.cloudlinux.com and repo.tuxcare.com
  • Architecture: x86_64. For other architectures, please contact our sales@tuxcare.com.
  1. Download the install script:

    wget https://repo.tuxcare.com/rhel8-els/install-rhel8-els-repo.sh
    
  2. Run with your license key.

    The script registers the server in the CLN with the key, adds a PGP key to the server.

    sh install-rhel8-els-repo.sh --license-key XXXXXXXX
    
  3. Verify that the installation was successful by running the following command:

    yum info els-define
    

    It should return information about the available package. If the package information is displayed, the installation was successful. After that, you can install updates from the repository using a standard yum upgrade command.
