Minion - Meridian Installation Documents Incorrect

Description

In the Minion installation section of the Meridian Installation document, it tells you to install the incorrect Minion repository and package. Here is the link to the installation guide that the customer was using: 

https://meridian.opennms.com/docs/meridian/releases/2020.1.7/guide-install/guide-install.html#_installing_on_rhel_2

In "Step 1", the incorrect repository is given. The customer should be using the same repository that they would use for their Meridian installation. 

 

The following line should be updated to the customer's Meridian repository: 

{{}}

The yum/dnf commands for the package installation are also incorrect. Instead of the following:

 
RHEL 8:
dnf -y install opennms-minion

RHEL 7:

yum -y install opennms-minion

They should be:

 

RHEL 8: 

dnf -y install meridian-minion

RHEL 7:

yum -y install meridian-minion

 

This matters because the ActiveMQ topic names are different between Horizon and Meridian. 

Let me know if I can give anymore information.

I replied on the Github PR, but what Dino had said about the repository is true. That should be updated as well. In "Step 1" we see the following:
{{}}

{{}}The customer should be using the Meridian repository that they are given when they purchase a license. It'll be different from the normal Horizon repository.
