Building MySQL Cluster from Source on Linux

This section provides information about compiling MySQL Cluster on Linux and other Unix-like

platforms. Building MySQL Cluster from source is similar to building the standard MySQL Server,

although it differs in a few key respects discussed here. For generał information about building MySQL

from source, see Section 2.9, “Installing MySOLfrom Source". For information about compiling MySQL

Cluster on Windows platforms, see Section 17.2.3.2, “Compiling and Installing MySQL Cluster from Source on Windows".

Building MySQL Cluster requires using the MySQL Cluster sources. These are

available from the

MySQL Cluster downloads page at

http: //dev.mysąl. com/downloads/cluster/. The archived

source file should have a name similar to mysql-cluster-gpl-7.3.3. tar. gz.

You can also

obtain MySQL development sources from launchpad.net. Attempting to build MySQL Cluster from

standard MySQL Server 5.6 sources is not supported.

The WITH_NDBCLUSTER_STORAGE_ENGINE [146] option for CMake causes the binaries for the

management nodes, data nodes, and other MySQL Cluster programs to be built; it also causes

mysqld to be compiled with MDB storage engine support. This option is enabled by default in the

MySQL Cluster NDB 7.3 sources.
