Getting started with administration

This section provides a quick introduction to Helix TeamHub On-Premises installation in a single server environment (see Standard setup) with one of the supported platforms.

Download the Helix TeamHub Combo package specific to the host operating system from Perforce's package repositories. After uploading the package to the server, install the dependencies and the package itself as root.

Alternatively, use the Perforce's package repositories directly to install the package instead of using the rpm -ivh or dpkg -i commands below.

RHEL and CentOS

Tip

If you are creating a DB node, the libgomp dependency is not required in the following command. However, installing it does no harm.

RHEL/CentOS 7 and 8

Run the following command as root to install the Helix TeamHub dependencies:

yum install postfix bzip2 sudo cronie mailx libgomp
rpm -ivh hth-X.X.X-stable.el8.x86_64.rpm

Configure postfix as Internet Site during setup.

RHEL 9

Run the following command as root to install the Helix TeamHub dependencies:

yum install postfix bzip2 sudo cronie s-nail libgomp
rpm -ivh hth-X.X.X-stable.el8.x86_64.rpm

Configure postfix as Internet Site during setup.

Ubuntu

apt-get update
apt-get install postfix bzip2 sudo cron mailutils libgomp1
dpkg -i hth_X.X.X_amd64.deb

Next, follow the steps provided by the installation package to configure the instance.

Control commands

TeamHub comes with the hth-ctl tool. The hth-ctl tool helps you manage TeamHub services and configuration, and enables you to perform administrative tasks. This is the same tool used during TeamHub installation and upgrades.
