Configure SQL Server Integration Services on Linux with ssis-conf
Applies to: 
SQL Server - Linux
You run the ssis-conf configuration script when you install SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Ubuntu. For more info about installing SSIS, see Install SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) on Linux.
You can also use the ssis-conf utility to configure the following properties:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
set-edition |
Set the edition of SQL Server. |
telemetry |
Enable or disable SQL Server Integration Services telemetry service. |
setup |
Initialize and set up Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services. |
Run ssis-conf
The examples in this article run ssis-conf by specifying the full path: /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf. If you navigate to that location before you run ssis-conf, you can run the utility in the context of the current directory: ./ssis-conf.
Be sure to run the commands that are described in this article with root (super user) privileges. For example, run sudo /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf setup and not /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf setup.
To run these commands with prompts in the language that you prefer, you can specify a locale. For example, to receive prompts in Chinese, run the following command:
sudo LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8 /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf setup
Use set-edition to set the edition of SQL Server Integration Services
The edition of SSIS is aligned with the edition of SQL Server.
Enter the following command:
sudo /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf set-edition
After you enter the command, you'll receive the following prompt:
Choose an edition of SQL Server:
1) Evaluation (free, no production use rights, 180-day limit)
2) Developer (free, no production use rights)
3) Express (free)
4) Web (PAID)
5) Standard (PAID)
6) Enterprise (PAID)
7) Enterprise Core (PAID)
8) I bought a license through a retail sales channel and have a product key to enter.
Details about editions can be found at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=852748&clcid=0x409.
Use of PAID editions of this software requires separate licensing through a Microsoft Volume Licensing program.
By choosing a PAID edition, you are verifying that you have the appropriate number of licenses in place to install and run this software.
Enter your edition (1-8):
If you enter a value from 1 to 7, the system configures a free or paid edition. If you enter 8, the utility prompts you to enter the product key that you bought:
Enter the 25-character product key:
Use telemetry to configure customer feedback
The telemetry command determines whether SSIS sends feedback to Microsoft.
For free editions (that is, Express, Developer, and Evaluation editions), the telemetry service is always enabled. If you have a free edition, you can't use the telemetry command to disable telemetry.
Enter the following command:
sudo /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf telemetry
For PAID editions, after you enter the command, you'll receive the following prompt:
Send feature usage data to Microsoft. Feature usage data includes information about your hardware configuration and how you use SQL Server Integration Services.
[Yes/No]:
If you select Yes, the telemetry service is enabled and starts running. The service starts automatically after each boot. If you select No, the telemetry service stops and is disabled.
Use setup to initialize and set up Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services
Use the setup command every time you install SSIS.
Enter the following command:
sudo /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf setup
The utility prompts you to acknowledge or provide values for the following items:
- Product license
- EULA agreement
- Telemetry service
- The language used by Integration Services
To run the setup command with prompts in the language that you prefer, you can specify a locale. For example, to receive prompts in Chinese, run the following command:
sudo LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8 /opt/ssis/bin/ssis-conf setup
ssis.conf format
The following /var/opt/ssis/ssis.conf file provides an example for each setting.
For SQL Server, you can change system settings by changing the values in the mssql.conf file. For SSIS, you can't change system settings by changing the values in the ssis.conf file. The ssis.conf file shows only the results of the setup. If you want to change the settings for SSIS, you can delete the ssis.conf file and run the setup command again.
Here is a sample ssis.conf file. Each field corresponds to the result of one setup step.
