Since we are going to install on 64 bit linux system, we are downloading the file below.

Then we create a folder like below to install java. The Java installation is done under the usr/bin folder by default. I’ll make installation in the folder I’ll create below for easier use.

as root:

We extract the downloaded java files into the /opt/jdk directory and ensure that the java works from this directory.

We set JAVA_HOME using the following commands.

We are editing the kibana.yml file which is the elasticsearch configuration file using the command below.
