Installation of NDB Cluster on Linux Component Description server The MySQL server ( mysqld ) with  NDB  storage engine support included, and associated MySQL server programs server-minimal Minimal installation of the MySQL server for NDB and related tools test mysqltest , other MySQL test programs, and support files A single bundle ( .tar  file) of all NDB Cluster RPMs for a given platform and architecture is also available. The name of this file follows the pattern shown here: You can extract the individual RPM files from this file using  tar  or your preferred tool for extracting archives. The components required to install the three major types of NDB Cluster nodes are given in the following list: In addition, the  client  RPM should be installed to provide the  ndb_mgm  management client on at least one management node. You may also wish to install it on SQL nodes, to have  mysql  and other MySQL client programs available on these. We discuss installation of nodes by type later in this section. ver  represents the three-part  NDB  storage engine version number in 8.0. x  format, shown as  8.0.25  in the examples.  rev  provides the RPM revision number in  major . minor  format. In the examples shown in this section, we use  1.1  for this value. The  distro  (Linux distribution) is one of  rhel5  (Oracle Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5),  el6 (Oracle Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6),  el7  (Oracle Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7), or  sles12 (SUSE Enterprise Linux 12). For the examples in this section, we assume that the host runs Oracle Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, or the equivalent ( el7 ). arch  is  i686  for 32-bit RPMs and  x86_64  for 64-bit versions. In the examples shown here, we assume a 64-bit platform. The NDB Cluster version number in the RPM file names (shown here as  8.0.25 ) can vary according to the version which you are actually using.  It is very important that all of the Cluster RPMs to be installed have the same version number . The architecture should also be appropriate to the machine on which the RPM is to be installed; in particular, you should keep in mind that 64-bit RPMs ( x86_64 ) cannot be used with 32-bit operating systems (use  i686  for the latter). Data nodes.   On a computer that is to host an NDB Cluster data node it is necessary to install only the  data-node  RPM. To do so, copy this RPM to the data node host, and run the following command as the system root user, replacing the name shown for the RPM as necessary to match that of the RPM downloaded from the MySQL website: shell>  rpm -Uhv mysql-cluster-community-data-node-8.0.25-1.el7.x86_64.rpm 3983 • Management node :  management-server • Data node :  data-node • SQL node :  server  and  common mysql-cluster- license - ver - rev . distro . arch .rpm-bundle.tar
