Introduction

This chapter describes how to install your Centreon monitoring platform.

The monitoring platform may be installed in several ways. However, we strongly recommend using Centreon ISO or Centreon repositories (packages) to install your platform. Enjoy our industrialization work during installation and update steps of the environment. Also enjoy optimizations installed by default on the system.

Centreon Installation can be performed from source (tar.gz) but the work is more complex. In addition the installation will only be supported by the community.
