The installer will ask for your confirmation like yes or no, select yes to continue the installation then save the user and database password that you have created.
Configuration
In the configuration popup, it will appear to setup the postfix service, select the internet site and fill in the hostname you can enter mail.domain.com or enter hostname VM
Then select yes to confirm restarting the service.
After the installation is complete there will be information that the OpenNMS service failed to run.
This is because the JAVA_HOME file path does not point to the OpenNMS file path, for completion it can use the following command then start the OpenNMS service again:
# echo "JAVA_HOME = / usr / lib / jvm / java-11-openjdk-amd64" >> / etc / default / opennms
# systemctl restarts opennms
For the final step is to configure OpenNMS, run the following command
# / usr / share / opennms / bin / install -dis
