Elastic Agent sudo password

[Daoudy (Diarrassouba)]

I'm trying to install the elastic agent, so I pasted the command on /home/elastic/ but it's asking for the sudo password.

What is sudo password in the lab environment

Hi @Waldemar_Schafer , you don't need sudo password for installing the Elastic Agent, but you need to paste and run the copied commands in a fresh terminal and from the elastic user home directory (/home/elastic or ~ ). Just to make sure you are on the right path, you can run cd ~ in your terminal window before pasting and running the command lines you copied. Best, Andre

@Daoudy

o I pasted the command on /home/elastic/ but it's asking for the sudo password.

Hi @Daoudy , I see by the screenshot that you are taking the Time Series Datastream training. In this environment you don't need to install the Elastic Agent because it's already available. Hence sudo access is not provided there.

Best,
Andre
