Installation best practices

To avoid your SSH session getting interrupted, we recommend initiating a tmux session and then running the installation process in the context of that session. If run under the tmux session, the SSH session can be interrupted, and you can reconnect to the previous session from where the installer was initiated.

Take the following steps:

SSH into the remote machine.
Install tmux on the machine using the following command:
```
sudo yum install tmux
sudo yum install tmux
```
Create a tmux session by running the following command.
```
tmux new -s uipath_install
tmux new -s uipath_install
```

Once inside tmux, you can start the installation process.

Commands such as the following one run in the session.

./installUiPathAS.sh
./bin/uipathctl rke2 install -i /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/cluster_config.json -o ./output.json -k -j server --offline-bundle ./as-infra.tar.gz --offline-tmp-folder /var/tmp --install-offline-prereqs --accept-license-agreement
./installUiPathAS.sh
./bin/uipathctl rke2 install -i /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/cluster_config.json -o ./output.json -k -j server --offline-bundle ./as-infra.tar.gz --offline-tmp-folder /var/tmp --install-offline-prereqs --accept-license-agreement

To list all sessions, run the following command:
```
tmux ls
tmux ls
```
To connect to most recent session, run the following command:
```
tmux a
tmux a
```
To connect to a session by name, run the following command:
```
tmux attach -t uipath_install
tmux attach -t uipath_install
```

To leave or detach from the tmux session, press Ctrl+B and then press D.

To reattach a tmux session, take the following steps:

List the sessions:
```
tmux ls
tmux ls
```
Find the appropriate tmux session and attach it to resume from the last working state:
```
tmux attach -t <session-name>
tmux attach -t <session-name>
```
