Kaspersky Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection

Installing the application

This section contains a step-by-step description of Kaspersky MLAD installation. During installation, Kaspersky MLAD creates the first application user with the system administrator role.

Prior to installation, you must make sure that the required amount of free space is available on the hard drive where the application will be installed. Docker service volumes must be stored on the drive where the application is installed. If the Docker volumes are stored on a different drive, you must move them and use the Docker configuration file to specify the path to the storage location of the volumes on the hard drive where the application is installed.

To install the application, each server must have a user account with root privileges that will be used to perform the installation. The directory for installing Kaspersky MLAD must be empty.

Installation of Kaspersky MLAD is performed by a qualified technical specialist of the Customer, a Kaspersky employee, or a certified integrator.

The Kaspersky MLAD server and the software installed on the server must meet the hardware and software requirements.

Kaspersky MLAD is installed according to the described procedure for application installation. Installation and use of Kaspersky MLAD is possible only on one server. Installation and use of different services and connectors on multiple servers is not possible.

Installation of Kaspersky MLAD will be interrupted if the integrity of the application archive has been breached. To obtain the correct archive of the application, please contact Kaspersky experts.

To install Kaspersky MLAD:

  1. Unpack the archive named Kaspersky_MLAD_5.0.0.-<build number>_ru-RU_en-US.tar.xz that is included in the distribution kit:

    tar xf Kaspersky_MLAD_5.0.0.< build number >_ru-RU_en-US.tar.xz

    The mlad-release-5.0.0-<build number> directory appears after the archive is unpacked.

  2. Navigate to the directory named mlad-release-5.0.0-<build number>:

    cd mlad-release-5.0.0-<build number>

  3. Run the setup.sh installation script:

    sudo ./setup.sh

  4. Follow the instructions of the Application Setup Wizard.

    Read the License Agreement carefully during installation. You must accept the terms of the End User License Agreement to install the application. If you do not accept the terms of the End User License Agreement, the installation process will be interrupted.

    Using the Application Setup Wizard, you can change the name and password of the first application user with the system administrator role.

    The application is installed in /opt/kaspersky/mlad by default. You can specify a different directory during installation.

To install Kaspersky MLAD in non-interactive mode:

  1. Unpack the archive named Kaspersky_MLAD_5.0.0.-<build number>_ru-RU_en-US.tar.xz that is included in the distribution kit:

    tar xf Kaspersky_MLAD_5.0.0.< build number >_ru-RU_en-US.tar.xz

  2. Navigate to the directory named mlad-release-5.0.0-<build number>:

    cd mlad-release-5.0.0-<build number>

  3. Run the setup.sh installation script with the following switches:

    sudo ./setup.sh -q -e accept -f <full path to installation directory>

    where:

    -q means that the application is installed in non-interactive mode. When installing the application in non-interactive mode, Kaspersky MLAD creates the first application user with the system administrator role and assigns it a default user name and password. To obtain the default user name and password, contact a qualified technical specialist of the Customer, a Kaspersky employee, or a certified integrator.

    -e accept means that you accept the terms of the End User License Agreement. You must accept the terms of the End User License Agreement to install the application. If you do not add the -e accept switch, installation of the application will not continue.

    You can read the text of the End User License Agreement in the text file named license_en.txt located in the 'legal' directory.

    -f <full path to installation directory> means the application will be installed in the specified directory. Skipping the -f switch will cause the application to be installed in the default directory /opt/kaspersky/mlad.

The application will be installed on the server. After installing the application, start it.

Some features will be unavailable until you add a license key.
