RPM for PPC64 architecture

[Hydrocephalic]

I've been attempting to install the agent on a ppc64 architecture, following the instructions for RedHat on the LogDNA website:

[root@server ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/logdna.repo
[logdna]
baseurl = https://repo.logdna.com/el6/
enabled = 1
gpgcheck = 1
gpgkey = https://repo.logdna.com/logdna.gpg
name = LogDNA repo

# yum install logdna-agent
Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, versionlock
No package logdna-agent available.
Error: Nothing to do

[root@server ~]# yum repolist |grep logdna
logdna                                   LogDNA repo                         0+8

CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7.5:GA:server
Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-862.25.3.el7.ppc64le
Architecture: ppc64-le

It seems to me LogDNA agent has no package for ppc64 architecture.

Would it be possible to publish the PPC64 RPM on the repo?

Do you have any update on this?

Hello do you have an update on ppc64 support?
The documentation does not reflect only x86 is supported but It appears only x86 rpm are shipped.

At this time we don’t support PPC64 architecture and don’t have immediate plans on the roadmap for such support.

Hello , there is any way to get the source code to allow us to compile the agent on ppc64le platform?

[dkhokhlov]

This is old agent. New generation agent based on Rust is located here:

https://github.com/logdna/logdna-agent-v2

Some porting effort will be needed similar to arm64 that was already done.

$ rustup target list | grep powerpc64le
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu

Porting scope is outlined here:
logdna/logdna-agent-v2#405 (comment)

[bogdansavu]

@dkhokhlov the porting scope is for s390 that is a different platform.
We will need to use the ppc64le Agent to allow us to Integrate PowerVS VMs with LogDNA.
Please let me know what we can do to allow us to compile this agent.
