Installation of the Linux ARM Agent is the same as for the Linux
Agent on x86, but make sure you use the correct installer. The
Linux Agent uses the RPM and DEB package formats for both
x86 and ARM. The x86 package will not install on ARM
endpoints, and the ARM installer will not install on x86

To install the Linux Agent:
Singularity Identity Security
1. In the Sentinels toolbar, click Packages.

Singularity Threat Services

Singularity Marketplace 2. Download the package for the distro of the endpoints.

3. Install the package with one of these methods:

RPM: Run sudo rpm -i package_pathname.

 DEB: Run sudo dpkg -i package_pathname.

Note: If you run the dpkg command alone, /var/lib/dpkg must have
exec permissions. If /var has noexec permissions, you can bind mount
dpkg in a different directory.

Example:

mkdir -p /opt/dpkg
mount --bind /var/lib/dpkg /opt/dpkg
mount -o remount,exec /opt/dpkg

4. Associate the Agent with the Management Console with the Group or Site
Token. Run sudo /opt/sentinelone/bin/sentinelctl management token set
<token_value>.

5. Start the Agent services. Run sudo /opt/sentinelone/bin/sentinelctl control

start.

6. After a few minutes, check the Agent status. Other software may interfere
with the startup. Run sudo /opt/sentinelone/bin/sentinelctl control status.

7. Validate that a new version of the Agent is installed. From the endpoint, run
/opt/sentinelone/bin/sentinelctl version.

Example workflow:

sudo rpm -i SentinelAgent-aarch64_linux_v23_3_2_12.rpm

sudo /opt/sentinelone/bin/sentinelctl management token set <token_value
