Collibra services on Linux as non-root user

If you have installed Collibra Data Governance Center as a non-root user on Linux, there are no services added to the Linux services list.

Note If you installed Collibra DGC as root, see Collibra DGC services on Linux.

You have to manage the Collibra services manually or install them afterwards.

Similar to the installation with the root user, you can only manage the agent and Collibra Console services. The other services in an environment are then managed via the Collibra Console user interface.

In the installation directory, by default ~/collibra, you find each Collibra service as a separate directory:

  • agent
  • console

Each of these directories has a bin directory, which contains the script to manage these services.

By default, you have to start these services manually after the restart of the node.

Run the script

  • agent: ./agent <command>
  • console: ./console <command>

Tip If you use the install command, the service is added as daemon, which can then be configured to start with the start of your operating system.
