This repo contains unofficial and unsupported scripts for installing and configuring Observe Linux Host monitoring agents.

Currently the scripts are provided for Ubuntu 20.04 and Fedora 35 on bare metal and non-AWS VMs (i.e. in KVM). For up-to-date instructions on other operating systems, please refer to official documentation.

To get an overview of what final result would look like, please see announcement blog article.
