25.3.1.3 Installing NDB Cluster Using .deb Files

The section provides information about installing NDB Cluster on Debian and related Linux distributions such Ubuntu using the.deb files supplied by Oracle for this purpose.

Oracle also provides an NDB Cluster APT repository for Debian and other distributions. SeeInstalling MySQL NDB Cluster Using the APT Repository, for instructions and additional information.

Oracle provides.deb installer files for NDB Cluster for 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. For a Debian-based system, only a single installer file is necessary. This file is named using the pattern shown here, according to the applicable NDB Cluster version, Debian version, and architecture:

mysql-cluster-gpl-ndbver-debiandebianver-arch.deb

Here,ndbver is the 3-partNDB engine version number,debianver is the major version of Debian (8 or9), andarch is one ofi686 orx86_64. In the examples that follow, we assume you wish to install NDB 8.0.43 on a 64-bit Debian 9 system; in this case, the installer file is namedmysql-cluster-gpl-8.0.43-debian9-x86_64.deb-bundle.tar.

Once you have downloaded the appropriate.deb file, you can untar it, and then install it from the command line usingdpkg, like this:

$> dpkg -i mysql-cluster-gpl-8.0.43-debian9-i686.deb

You can also remove it usingdpkg as shown here:

$> dpkg -r mysql

The installer file should also be compatible with most graphical package managers that work with.deb files, such asGDebi for the Gnome desktop.

The.deb file installs NDB Cluster under/opt/mysql/server-version/, whereversion is the 2-part release series version for the included MySQL server. For NDB 8.0, this is always8.0. The directory layout is the same as that for the generic Linux binary distribution (seeTable 2.3, “MySQL Installation Layout for Generic Unix/Linux Binary Package”), with the exception that startup scripts and configuration files are found insupport-files instead ofshare. All NDB Cluster executables, such asndb_mgm,ndbd, andndb_mgmd, are placed in thebin directory.
