Downloading and Running TQAdmin

TQAdmin requires elevated privileges and must be run as root.

The TQAdmin yum installs the TQAdmin CLI on your device and allows you to use TQAdmin CLI commands, such as the install or upgrade commands.
Regardless of your install type, you need the TQAdmin tool either to for your initial install and/or for future version updates.  If you are installing ThreatQ on your own device (BYOD), you must download TQAdmin to complete the install process.  If you are installing ThreatQ as a virtual instance, we recommend that you download TQAdmin since you will need it for future upgrades.

Downloading TQAdmin

  1. To download dependencies for the TQAdmin yum package, run the following command:
    # yum install https://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/os/x86_64/Packages/bash-completion-2.1-8.el7.noarch.rpm
  2. To download the TQAdmin yum package, run the following command:
    # yum install https://download.threatq.com/tqadmin.rpm

Using TQAdmin to Install ThreatQ

  1. To install the most recent version of ThreatQ, run the following command:
    # /usr/local/bin/tqadmin platform install
  2. To install any other ThreatQ version, add the -v x.x.x parameter to the install command:
    # /usr/local/bin/tqadmin platform install -v <release number>

    # /usr/local/bin/tqadmin platform install -v 5.29.4

  3. The install process prompts you for the rpm.threatq.com credentials provided to you by your ThreatQ field representative. If you do not have these credentials (username and a multi-character string), contact either your field sales contact or ThreatQ Support. You also need these credentials for the first boot process.
  4. After the install is complete, the server reboots.
  5. On return to the prompt, you can log in for the first time.
