Install Orb on RPM-based Systems (CentOS, Fedora, RHEL)

These instructions are for installing Orb on RPM-based Linux distributions like CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).

sudo dnf config-manager addrepo --from-repofile=https://pkgs.orb.net/stable/rpm/orb.repo

Install Orb

sudo dnf install orb

Start Orb

sudo systemctl enable --now orb

Enable auto-updates

sudo systemctl enable --now orb-update.timer

Enable ephemeral mode (optional)

Info

Ephemeral mode prevents writes to disk by storing the Orb data in memory rather than in a local database. This is useful in applications where the file system is on a physical medium sensitive to continous writes (e.g. SD card, NAND flash).

echo 'ORB_EPHEMERAL_MODE=1' | sudo tee -a /etc/default/orb >/dev/null
sudo systemctl restart orb
