simet-ma 0.16.8 (beta)

SIMET-MA

This is a beta pre-release of simet-ma, the open-source measurement engine for SIMET2.

This beta version includes the integrated LMAP scheduler (simet-lmapd) and also supports running the measurement agent as a docker container.

Docker build

Docker images are available pre-built at:
docker pull docker-download.simet.nic.br:8483/medidor-simet/simet-ma:latest

Checkout or download the source code, and read docker/README.txt. The docker container requires special privileges (CAP_NET_RAW, CAP_NET_ADMIN) and must be run with host networking.

Do read the instructions: the SIMET-MA container works a lot more like a stand-alone operating system than your typical container, and since it is a measurement device, its precision depends on the container host setup and kernel version and configuration.

Native binary packages

There is a simple installer for:
Debian (stretch/9, buster/10) and Ubuntu (xenial/16.04, bionic/18.04, eoan/19.10, focal/20.04):
https://download.simet.nic.br/medidores/simet-ma/linux/simet-ma_0.16.8.run

Instructions:

Download and run the ".run" file as root (as in "/bin/sh simet-ma.run") to install the appropriate .deb packages for your system.

If you have previous versions of the simet-ma packages already installed, they will be updated.

If you have outdated operating system packages, they will be updated.
