It's possible to have an independent installation of Resilio Tracker. Download tracker installation file from the download page and follow the steps below.
- Open the “ResilioConnectTracker.msi” file supplied in the delivered package
- Follow the installation steps
- By default, Resilio Connect Tracker will be installed into C:\Program Files\Resilio Connect Tracker\ and Resilio Connect Tracker Server will be registered and started
- Make sure that your firewall allows incoming connections to the port you choose for the Tracker server (TCP/UDP 3000 by default)
- If you want to choose a different port
- open Command Prompt as Administrator;
- unregister Tracker server service, run command:ConnectTracker.exe -sd
- register Tracker server as a Windows service, run command:
ConnectTracker.exe -sr -p 12345
where 12345 is the desired port;
- after registering, the service does not start up immediately and you may want to start it manually.
By default Tracker listens on all interfaces on IPv4 and IPv6 address range, both UDP and TCP, port 3000
- Extract the downloaded “tar.gz” file to the following location (the binary has permissions to execute by default):
tar xvf tracker.tar.gz -C /opt
- Make sure your firewall allows incoming connections to the port you plan for your Tracker server (TCP/UDP 3000 by default)
- Start tracker server from this location by typing:
/opt/resilio-tracker/tracker
. To force Tracker server to listen on a different port, run it with the-p <port>
command line parameter.
By default Tracker listens on all interfaces on IPv4 and IPv6 address range, both UDP and TCP, port 3000
Once installed, the tacker will appear on tab Auxiliary servers (available from Resilio Connect v2.12):
One tracker is already present there - the tracker which was installed automatically together with the Management Console.
The other - is the manually installed tracker.
Starting with Resilio Connect v2.12, notion of a Default tracker server is introduced. This is the tacker that will be used by the agents by default unless any other is specifically configured in the Agent Profile.
The tracker which is installed on the Management Console host is marked as default. This is configurable and any other, manually installed, can be selected as default. It's possible to configure several default trackers.
Later, either of these can be used in the Agent Profile. If checkbox "Default" is selected, the agents will use either of the 'default' trackers in load balancing or high availability mode.
