To install JetStream, you will need to either be logged in as root or be an administrative user using sudo. The examples below use sudo.

New Installation

To install JetStream on Linux, run the following:

# sudo dpkg -i go-jetstream_<version>.deb

Edit /etc/jetstream-server.rsp and add in your license key (provided by Jet Digital) by appending the --license-password option. For instance:

# sudo vi /etc/jetstream-server.rsp
--api-allow-remote-control
--trigger-dir=/var/lib/jetstream/triggers
--persistent-state-dir=/var/lib/jetstream/state
--license-password=12345678

Enable and start the service:

# sudo systemctl enable jetstream-server
# sudo systemctl start jetstream-server

Your server should now be fully operational.

Update Existing Installation

To update JetStream on Linux, run:

# sudo dpkg -i go-jetstream_<version>.deb
# sudo systemctl daemon-reload
# sudo systemctl restart jetstream-server

Check Service

You can check if the JetStream service is running by running the systemctl status command. Under normal circumstances, the command should report that the process is active(running) under the Active heading. For example:

# systemctl status jetstream-server

   CGroup: /system.slice/jetstream-server.service
           ├─ 681 /usr/local/bin/jetstream server @/etc/jetstream-server.rsp
           └─1172 /usr/local/bin/jetstream server @/etc/jetstream-server.rsp
