Overview #

This guide explains how to configure the public APT repository for installing and keeping your RELIANOID Community Edition up to date. If you are using the Enterprise Edition, please use the official channels or contact our support team.

This procedure has been tested on Debian Bookworm, the base version for RELIANOID >= 7.

Setting Up the RELIANOID APT Repository #

Install the APT GPG Key #

To ensure package authenticity and security, install the RELIANOID APT GPG key by running the following commands:

wget https://repo.relianoid.com/ce/v7/pool/main/r/relianoid-archive-keyring/relianoid-archive-keyring_1.2_all.deb
dpkg -i relianoid-archive-keyring_1.2_all.deb

Configure the APT Repository #

Create a new source file to configure the RELIANOID repository.

Verify the Configuration
Ensure the repository is correctly set up by checking the source list file:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/relianoid.list

The file should contain the following entry:

deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/relianoid.gpg] https://repo.relianoid.com/ce/v7 bookworm main

Update the Package List #

After configuring the repository, update the local package index:

noid-updater

(formerly /usr/local/relianoid/bin/checkupdates)

Upgrade RELIANOID Packages #

To install or upgrade the RELIANOID Community Edition, execute:

noid-updater -i

(formerly /usr/local/relianoid/bin/checkupdates -i)

Install RELIANOID #

For a fresh installation, run:

apt-get install relianoid
apt-get install relianoid-gui

Your RELIANOID Community Edition is now ready to use!

Additional Notes #

RELIANOID depends on some packages from Debian’s public repositories. Ensure that additional Debian repositories are properly configured for your Debian version.

For example, a proper /etc/apt/sources.list configuration for Debian Bookworm should include:

deb  http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb  http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb  http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

RELIANOID Community Edition Package Updates #

The RELIANOID APT repository is automatically updated whenever new changes are pushed to the public GitHub repository:

https://github.com/relianoid/adc-loadbalancer

If any updates occur in the source code, a new RELIANOID Debian package is generated and published in the APT repository automatically.

By following these steps, you ensure your RELIANOID installation is always up to date with the latest community-maintained improvements and security updates.
