Getting started with Server monitoring

Get your first server reporting metrics in under a minute. Add the server in the dashboard, run one install command on the host, then wait for the first scrape.

Quick start

1. Add a server in the dashboard

   Open your Servers view and click New server. Give it a display name, for example api-prod-1. Hyperping generates a single-use install token.

2. Run the install command on the host

   Copy the command from the enrollment screen and run it as a user that can sudo. The installer detects OS and architecture, verifies SHA256, and registers the service.

3. Wait for the first scrape

   Refresh the Servers view. Within about 30 seconds the new row flips to Online (green dot) and the CPU, memory, disk, network, and System Info panels start filling in.

Install command

Replace the placeholder with your real install token:

curl -fsSL https://hyperping.com/install.sh | sh -s HP_INSTALL_xxxxx

The script is POSIX sh, so sh, dash, and bash all work. If you prefer to run as root directly, the command works without sudo.
