If you're moving to a newer Linux OS and notice you can't deploy the Patchman agent, this guide is for you.

We've released a new version of Patchman that comes bundled in with ImunifyAV+. This significant upgrade allows our customers with a Patchman CLEAN license to migrate and enhance the security of their servers.

ImunifyAV+ offers malware scanning and automated cleanup capabilities, adding another layer of protection to safeguard your servers against threats.

OS support

This new deployment method is supported on the following operating systems:

• CentOS/RHEL: Versions 7, 8, 9
  
• CloudLinux OS: Versions 7, 8, 9
  
• Ubuntu: Versions 16.04 (LTS only), 18.04, 20.04 (LTS), 22.04, and 24.04
  
• Debian: Versions 9 (up to Imunify v6.11), 10 (requires buster-backports), 11, 12, and 13
  
• AlmaLinux: Versions 8, 9, 10
  
• Rocky Linux: Versions 8, 9
  

Important note before you start

After migration of an existing server, you cannot restore files from quarantine. Plan accordingly before switching a server.

wget https://repo.imunify360.cloudlinux.com/defence360/imav-deploy.sh -O imav-deploy.sh

2. Run the migration:

Deployment Option B: Install Patchman from scratch on a new server

2. Install ImunifyAV+:

bash imav-deploy.sh

3. Install Patchman components:

imunify-antivirus patchman install

4. Register your Patchman license key:

5. Enable Patchman in the configuration:

If you have custom integrations, ensure the standalone Imunify config is set before the installation or migration process. You can find more details about installing ImunifyAV+ in standalone mode in our documentation.
