Install Azure IoT Edge
Follow the official instructions: Install or uninstall the Azure IoT Edge runtime​
Configure Azure IotEdge
Enter DPS scope, registration ID, and the symmetric key in your IoT Edge configuration:
sudo nano /etc/iotedge/config.yaml
Find the section "DPS symmetric key provisioning configuration" and add or change your values:
# DPS symmetric key provisioning configuration
provisioning:
  source: "dps"
  global_endpoint: "https://global.azure-devices-provisioning.net"
  scope_id: "00000000000"
  attestation:
    method: "symmetric_key"
    registration_id: "ab12cd34ef-56gh-78ij-90kl-12mn34op"
    symmetric_key: "1234567890+abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/12345="
Set the hostname:
hostname: "VPX-ab12cd34ef-56gh-78ij-90kl-12mn34op"
Get the azure-production-certificates from SWARM Analytics and place them into the following directory:
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/iotedge/hsm/
sudo cp azure-production-certificates/* /var/lib/iotedge/hsm/
sudo chown iotedge:iotedge /var/lib/iotedge/hsm/*
Create the SWARM configuration directory:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/swarm/config
Restart the IoTEgde agent:
sudo systemctl restart iotedge
You will now see your deployment in the SWARM Control Center as "Unnamed Device" with the registration ID:
This registration ID is a sample
At this stage, the IoT Edge runtime will pull the VPX Agent from Azure, install the docker containers needed and start them up.
