Add a machine that cannot be reached directly
How to set this up
- Turn on the relay in Settings > Relay, with an address that reaches this relay from the internet, and press Update on the observability server.
- Pick the machine's platform and a name, then press Save install kit. Vantage writes a folder holding the agent and a one-time join code.
- Carry the folder to the machine and run this inside it. Delete the folder afterwards.
sudo ./install-agent.sh --relay-kit . - This panel waits for the machine to join, checks that it is the one you installed, then saves it. If it never comes, revoke the kit.
Something not working?
- The relay is not on, or the observability server was not updated: the kit step says so. Fix it in Settings > Relay.
- The machine never joins: check that the relay address is reachable from the machine's network and that the port is forwarded to the observability server. Then revoke the kit and make a new one.
- You lost the folder or someone else saw it: press Revoke this kit and make a new one.
