Installing Percona Toolkit
==========================
System Requirements
-------------------
Most tools require:
* Perl v5.8 or newer
* Bash v3 or newer
* Core Perl modules like Time::HiRes
Tools that connect to MySQL require:
* Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql
* MySQL 5.0 or newer
Percona Toolkit is only tested on UNIX systems, primarily Debian and
Red Hat derivatives; other operating systems are not supported.
Tools that connect to MySQL may work with MySQL v4.1, but this is not
test or supported.
Quick Install
-------------
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
Detailed Install
----------------
Extract the tarball and cd to the resulting directory:
tar zxvf percona-toolkit-<version>.tar.gz
cd percona-toolkit-<version>
Generate the Makefile, which will check Perl module dependencies and
so forth:
perl Makefile.PL
Build the tools' man pages and prep for test and install:
make
Test that the tools can run:
make test
All tests should pass. If not, then your system may be missing a Perl module
required by a tool. The tests are not comprehensive; they only test that the
tools can be executed by Perl and Bash.
Finally, install all tools and their man pages:
make install
On most systems, the tools are installed in /usr/local/bin.
Installation Options
--------------------
To install to a directory other than your system's default, such as your
home directory, generate the Makefile with a prefix:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=${HOME}
