System Requirements

ATTENTION! The server can be virtual, but only on hypervisor virtualization technologies. Installation and launch inside a guest OS on a container-based virtualization platform is not supported

OS

Supported OS versions:

• Alt Server 11.1 (Astra Server 11.1)
• Astra Linux 1.8
• RedOS 8 Standard
• RedOS 8 Certified
• Ubuntu 26.04.x LTS
• Ubuntu 24.04.x LTS
• Ubuntu 22.04.x LTS (it is recommended to upgrade to newer versions)

Minimum

Minimum requirements for running the application and its functional testing:

CPU: 4 vCPU (Intel Core i5 / Xeon)
RAM: 16 GB
HDD: 50 GB SSD

Recommended

For operational modes:

CPU: Intel Xeon / i7 8 Core
RAM: 32 GB
HDD: 500GB SSD (RAID array is desirable)

Infrastructure Requirements

Outgoing Traffic

The server where the product will be installed must have access to the following resources:

• https://reg.gl.swd.im - container image registry for the application
• https://license.swarmica.com - Swarmica license key server
• https://mirror.gcr.io - mirror of the container image registry for related services such as redis, postgres, traefik, etc.
• Mirrors or package repositories for Ubuntu OS configured on the server

If SMTP Relay is used for outgoing mail, it must also be accessible from the application server.

Incoming Traffic

• Ports 80 and 443 - for WEB interface
• Port 25 - if an incoming email channel through SMTP is used

DNS

• The selected domain name must be resolved to the external IP address of the system (A record)

Example:

To make the system available at support.swarmica.com, installed on a server with IP address 79.141.74.181, you need to add the following records in DNS:

support.swarmica.com   A      79.141.74.181

Incoming Mail

The recommended configuration is to receive mail through IMAP. To do this, prepare the account data where the technical support mail will arrive:

• Server address
• Port (993)
• User (usually the same as the email address, for example, support@company.tld)
• Password (usually the same as for the user, except for mail on services Gmail, Yandex Mail, Mail.ru - there you need to create an application password)

Outgoing Mail

To send outgoing mail, you need to configure SMTP Relay - an authorized SMTP server that will forward mail from the system to external recipients.

Supported protocols:

• SMTP (25)
• SMTP SSL (465)
• SMTP TLS (587)

License

Obtain the following data from the Swarmica representative, necessary for the correct start of the system:

• Swarmica license key
• Account data for the container image registry (login and access token)

Installation

1. Download the archive to the server where the installation is planned:

mkdir swarmica-installer
cd swarmica-installer
wget https://support.swarmica.com/attachments/installer/installer.tar.gz

2. Unpack the archive with a suitable utility:

tar -xvzf installer.tar.gz

3. Add execution permissions:

chmod +x installer.sh

4. Start the installation:

./installer.sh install

Help: ./installer.sh help

Launch in DEBUG mode: export DEBUG=1; ./installer.sh install
