  2. Untar the file
    $ sudo mkdir /apps/kylo
    $ sudo tar -xvf /tmp/kylo-<version>-dependencies.tar.gz -C /apps/kylo
    
  3. Run the post-install script

    $ sudo /apps/kylo/setup/install/post-install.sh /apps/kylo ad_kylo users
    
  4. Update kylo-services application.properties file

    $ sudo vi /apps/kylo/kylo-services/conf/application.properties
