Eclipse Kura Installation on Raspberry Pi 3

Eclipse Kura installation on raspberry pi 3

I would recommend using Raspbian and following the instructions here: http://eclipse.github.io/kura/doc/raspberry-pi-quick-start.html. That documentation is kept the most current.

Thanks,

Eclipse Kura installation on Linux machines or VM

I believe the question was asked and answered here. To summarize, there is no generic installer for Ubuntu, Fedora, or CentOS. Kura has dependencies on both the OS and CPU architecture. The supported platforms are:

• Raspberry Pi based on Raspbian: Raspberry Pi, Raspberry Pi B+,
  Raspberry Pi 2/3
• BeagleBone Black based on Debian
• Fedora 25 ARM
• Intel Edison

The "No Net" versions of the posted installers will remove most of the OS dependencies. For CPU architectures, if you are using something other than ARMv6 HF or x86_64, you will need to compile the native libraries. The minimum native library needed for Kura to start is udev.

How can we back up KURA installation and configuration on a Raspberry Pi

Every time you apply a change in Kura, the changes are saved in a snapshot file. Each file is appended with a timestamp to denote the most recent change. These files are stored on disk at /opt/eclipse/kura/data/snapshots. If you have the latest snapshot backed up, you can:

1. Reinstall and start Kura
2. Open the Kura Web UI and navigate to Settings -> Snapshots
3. Use the 'Upload and Apply' button to upload your backed up file

Note: The snapshot files are encrypted on disk, to view them in plain text you must use the Kura Web UI to download the file. Also, you cannot manually copy the saved snapshot file to the new installation. You must use the Kura web UI to upload your file.

Thanks,
