This section contains information about the components, installation and initial configuration requirements for installing MySQL Enterprise.
To obtain MySQL Enterprise, visit http://enterprise.mysql.com if you're a customer. Otherwise, visit http://www.mysql.com/products/enterprise/. The platforms that are officially supported for MySQL Enterprise are listed at http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms.html.
MySQL Enterprise Server is available for download in the form of Quarterly Service Pack (QSP) or Monthly Rapid Update (MRU) binary releases.
To install MySQL Enterprise Server, you should use the latest available Quarterly Service Pack (QSP). This includes an accumulation of the bug fixes provided in all predecessor QSP and MRU releases.
MRU releases are provided on a monthly basis and represent the most current Enterprise Server bug fixes. Each MRU is an accumulation of the bug fixes included in its predecessor. Customers should standardize on the latest MRU release only if it includes a needed bug fix.

Enterprise Server releases will be created for the following packages from the MySQL 5.0 tree:
-
mysql-enterprise: Released under a commercial license and includes the following storage engines:MyISAM,MEMORY,MERGE,InnoDB,ARCHIVE,BLACKHOLE,EXAMPLE,FEDERATED. -
mysql-enterprise-gpl: Same asmysql-enterprise, but released under the GPL. -
mysql-cluster:mysql-enterpriseplus MySQL Cluster (NDB). -
mysql-classic: Released under a commercial license, does not includeInnoDB. -
mysql-community: Same asmysql-enterprise-gpl, but available for the community, and released every 6 months.
To satisfy different user requirements, we provide several servers. mysqld is an optimized server that is a smaller, faster binary. mysqld-debug is compiled with debugging support but is otherwise configured identically to the non-debug server.
Each of these servers is compiled from the same source distribution, though with different configuration options. All native MySQL clients can connect to servers from either MySQL version.
For Windows and Mac OS X platforms you will need to use the MySQL installer. For all other other platforms, you will need to use the TAR, Zip or native package format (RPM, Solaris PKG) pafiles to perform the installation.

When upgrading to MySQL Enterprise from Community Server you need only follow the installation process to install and upgrade the packages to the latest version provided by MySQL Enterprise. You will also need to install the latest MySQL Enterprise Service Pack and any outstanding MySQL Hot-fix packs.
Be aware, however, that you must take into account any of the changes when moving between major releases. You should also check the release notes (see Appendix C, MySQL Enterprise Release Notes) for details on major changes between revisions of MySQL Enterprise Server. For details of changes in other packages in MySQL Enterprise, see Appendix E, MySQL Change History.
You should also review the notes and advice contained within Section 2.4.17, “Upgrading MySQL”.

You can uninstall MySQL Enterprise using the standard tools according to your operating system.
Note
When uninstalling, any data files created are not removed. You will need to separately remove these files to completely remove MySQL from your system.
To uninstall MySQL Enterprise on Windows you should use the Add or Remove Programs utility located within the Control Panel.
Any data you created while MySQL Enterprise was installed will not be removed. You will need to separately delete this information.
To uninstall MySQL Enterprise on a Linux operating system that uses the RPM package format, you must remove each of the packages that were installed by the MySQL Enterprise Installer individually.
To do this, first obtain a list of the installed packages:
shell> rpm -q -a|grep -i mysql mysql-docs-en-5.0.26-1 MySQL-server-standard-5.0.26-0.rhel4 mysql-connector-j-5.0.3-1 MySQL-devel-standard-5.0.26-0.rhel4 mysql-query-browser-5.0r4-1rhel4 mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.12-1 MySQL-client-standard-5.0.26-0.rhel4 mysql-administrator-5.0r4-1rhel4 mysql-gui-tools-5.0r4-1rhel4 mysql-setup-wizard-1.0-1 mysql-connector-net-1.0.7-1
You can remove these packages individually, or all together automatically, like this:
shell> rpm -q -a|grep -i mysql|xargs rpm --erase
