<title>Install the Database on a Separate Node</title>
|
|
<para>This section describes how to install MySQL on a standalone machine, separate from the Management Server.
|
|
This technique is intended for a deployment that includes several Management Server nodes.
|
|
If you have a single-node Management Server deployment, you will typically use the same node for MySQL.
|
|
See <xref linkend="management-server-install-db-local"/>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>The management server doesn't require a specific distribution for the MySQL node.
|
|
You can use a distribution or Operating System of your choice.
|
|
Using the same distribution as the management server is recommended, but not required.
|
|
See <xref linkend="management-server-system-requirements"/>.

<para>On RHEL and CentOS, MySQL does not set a root password by default. It is very strongly recommended that you set a root password as a security precaution. Run the following commands, and substitute your own desired root password. This step is not required on Ubuntu as it asks for a root password during installation.</para>

<para>Run this command to secure your installation. You can answer "Y" to all questions except to "Disallow root login remotely?". This is required to set up the databases.</para>
