FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy the CrowdStrike Falcon sensor on Linux VMs and Kubernetes clusters?▼

Deploy the Falcon sensor by choosing standalone RPM or DEB installation for Linux VMs, or Helm DaemonSet deployment for Kubernetes clusters. Apply required IBM configuration and verify successful sensor registration using applicable administrative tools.

What do I need to verify Falcon sensor registration and troubleshoot installation issues?▼

Verify Falcon sensor registration by confirming agent identifiers and inspecting DaemonSet status. Troubleshoot installation, startup, and authentication issues using sudo or Kubernetes administrative access, Falcon installation packages or registry credentials, and tools such as systemctl, kubectl, helm, curl, and jq.

Can I use Helm to deploy the Falcon sensor as a DaemonSet in a Kubernetes environment?▼

Yes, you can use Helm to deploy the Falcon sensor as a DaemonSet in Kubernetes. Configure privileged Kubernetes namespaces and registry access, then verify the DaemonSet status to ensure endpoint protection is established across the cluster.

How do I configure CrowdStrike customer IDs and grouping tags for the Falcon sensor?▼

Configure CrowdStrike customer IDs, grouping tags, trace settings, and registry access during sensor configuration on IBM-managed Linux hosts and Kubernetes clusters. Apply these settings through the deployment method chosen for your specific environment.

Why is my Falcon sensor not registering after deployment on an IBM-managed Linux host?▼

If your Falcon sensor is not registering, troubleshoot common installation, startup, and authentication issues. Confirm sensor registration and agent identifiers, verify sudo access, and ensure Falcon installation packages are properly applied to the IBM-managed Linux host.

Does the Falcon sensor deployment support both RPM and DEB package installations?▼

Yes, Falcon sensor deployment supports both RPM and DEB package installations for standalone Linux VMs. Choose the appropriate package format based on your Linux distribution, then proceed with sensor configuration and registration verification.
