Node Install

Node installers are served by Dash under /deploy. The node host does not need to download GitHub Release binaries directly.

Linux​

curl -fsSL https://dash.example.com/deploy/linux/install.sh -o install_node.sh
sudo bash install_node.sh dash.example.com 443 '<node-secret>' 3 --net eth0,eth1

Linux supports amd64 and arm64. The service name is ithiltir-node.

The Linux installer attempts to install smartmontools and enables ithiltir-node-smart-cache.timer to refresh /run/ithiltir-node/smart.json. SMART setup failure does not stop base monitoring.

Common checks:

systemctl status ithiltir-node.service
journalctl -u ithiltir-node.service -n 100 --no-pager

macOS​

curl -fsSL https://dash.example.com/deploy/macos/install.sh -o install_node.sh
sudo bash install_node.sh dash.example.com 443 '<node-secret>' 3

macOS currently supports arm64.

Windows​

Run in Administrator PowerShell:

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://dash.example.com/deploy/windows/install.ps1" -OutFile ".\install_node.ps1"
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\install_node.ps1 dash.example.com 443 "<node-secret>" 3

Windows installs runner and the ithiltir-node service.

Extra Arguments​

Install scripts pass extra arguments to push:

  • --net iface1,iface2
  • --require-https

--require-https rejects non-HTTPS targets and disables HTTP fallback.
