Debian
The first step is to add our server GPG key to your keyring, on that way you can get our signed packages:
Debian 10 (Buster)
Debian 9 (Stretch)
Debian 8 (Jessie)
deb https://packages.fluentbit.io/debian/jessie jessie main
Now let your system update the apt database:
$ sudo apt-get install td-agent-bit
Now the following step is to instruct systemd to enable the service:
sudo service td-agent-bit status
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/td-agent-bit.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Main PID: 6739 (td-agent-bit)
Memory: 656.0K
CPU: 1.393s
CGroup: /system.slice/td-agent-bit.service
The default configuration of td-agent-bit is collecting metrics of CPU usage and sending the records to the standard output, you can see the outgoing data in your /var/log/syslog file.
