Linux

Ostinato for Linux is distributed as multiple deb/rpm packages compressed into a single tgz - one for each distro.

First untar the tgz for your distro to extract the deb/rpm packages -

$ tar zxvf /path/to/tgz
$ ls

Depending on whether you have deb/rpm packages, follow the appropriate instructions below -

debrpm

Use apt install with the full path to the local package - prefix ./ if the .deb file is in current directory.

$ sudo apt install ./ostinato-agent*.deb
$ sudo apt install ./ostinato-controller*.deb

Use yum to install the package.

$ sudo yum --nogpgcheck localinstall ostinato-agent*.rpm
$ sudo yum --nogpgcheck localinstall ostinato-controller*.rpm
