Setup

This section covers initial configuration after Upsilon packages are installed.

Modern Upsilon environments are bootstrapped with upsilon-cli from a control node. The CLI publishes HTTP bootstrap assets, initializes the fabric-config git repository, and optionally distributes the upsilon-drone binary. Individual services are then configured in the order below.

Recommended setup order

  1. Database Setup — create the MySQL database and schema

  2. Control Node Bootstrap — run upsilon controlnode bootstrap to publish bootstrap assets and fabric-config

  3. Web Setup — complete the web installer

  4. Drone Setup — bootstrap drones with curl http://upsilon/bootstrap | bash or run drones manually

  5. Custodian Setup — connect the custodian to the database
