ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE

Deployment

Promote one verified package with explicit ownership, paths, validation and rollback evidence.

Plan

  • confirm Linux and Python compatibility
  • inventory required optional tools and hardware exposure
  • choose a dedicated unprivileged account
  • plan configuration, SOP, state, log and audit ownership
  • record the current package and rollback artifact
  • agree the systemd user-unit review boundary

Deploy

  1. Verify the release checksum.
  2. Install into a dedicated virtual environment.
  3. Install reviewed configuration and SOP files.
  4. Run strict configuration and collector validation.
  5. Run one dry-run check cycle.
  6. Verify JSONL and SQLite records.
  7. Only then enable the reviewed timer.

No hidden production assumptions

Public documentation does not assume a private repository, SSH alias, hostname, username, filesystem layout or unpublished download endpoint.
