init-kibana

This script runs Kibana4 on RHEL6 / CENTOS6 as a non-root user. You can specify the user you wish to run Kibana4 as.

To make this script work, you'll need to change the following;

Location of Kibana bin file:

KIBANA_BIN=/home/kibana_user/kibana/current/bin

DAEMON_USER=kibana_user

Once that's finished, you'll install the script to /etc/init.d/kibana and run

sudo service kibana start

You should be able to verify the script is running as the set user with

ps aux | grep kibana
