EDR: Is The Gunicorn Service Required For Operation Of The EDR Server?

Products

• Carbon Black EDR (formerly Cb Response)

Issue/Introduction

Is the Gunicorn service required for operation of the EDR Server?

Environment

• EDR Server: All Supported Versions

Resolution

Gunicorn is utilized for sensorservices and coreservices and part of the EDR virtual environment to keep separate from anything else installed on the server.
 

Additional Information

• Gunicorn will not show up as an installed RPM; running "service gunicorn status" in a terminal window will not find gunicorn.service.
• Run ps -aef | grep gunicorn if cb-enterprise services are started to confirm it's running coreservices and sensorservices. If gunicorn is running these services, all is operating as expected.
