Installing on Fedora

Installing on Fedora

Binary packages of TokuMX Community and Enterprise editions are available for Fedora 20. The packages come in three components:

• tokumx contains the mongo client shell and various tools like mongoimport and mongoexport.
• tokumx-common contains the Fractal Tree indexing libraries and some documentation.
• tokumx-server contains the mongod database server and the mongos routing server.

Installation

1. For a full installation, download all three packages from the community or enterprise download page.

   You should have these files in your current directory:

   $ ls tokumx*.rpm
   tokumx-1.4.2-2.fc20.x86_64.rpm  tokumx-common-1.4.2-2.fc20.x86_64.rpm  tokumx-server-1.4.2-2.fc20.x86_64.rpm
   

2. Install the downloaded packages with yum.

   $ sudo yum install tokumx*.rpm
