1、下载MariaDB（mariadb-5.5.31.tar.gz）

[root@zabbix_server opt]# wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.5.tar.gz

2、安装MariaDB

[root@zabbix_server opt]# tar xzvf mariadb-5.5.31.tar.gz
[root@zabbix_server cmake-2.8.5]# cd cmake-2.8.5
[root@zabbix_server cmake-2.8.5]# ./bootstrap
[root@zabbix_server cmake-2.8.5]# make
[root@zabbix_server cmake-2.8.5]# make install

3、安装MariaDB所需软件包

yum install libaio-devel -y
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/mariamysql
-DWITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=1
-DENABLED_LOCAL_INFILE=1 -DEXTRA_CHARSETS=all -DDEFAULT_CHARSET=utf8
-DDEFAULT_COLLATION=utf8_general_ci -DWITH_DEBUG=0
-DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release -DFEATURE_SET=community
-DWITH_EMBEDDED_SERVER=OFF
cp support-files/my-innodb-heavy-4G.cnf /etc/my.cnf
/usr/local/mariamysql/scripts/mysql_install_db
--basedir=/usr/local/mariamysql/ --datadir=/usr/local/mariamysql/data/
--user=mysql
/usr/local/mariamysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &

4、查看mariadb是否安装成功

[root@zabbix_server mariadb-5.5.31]# ps -ef | grep mysql
root 9010 17846 0 16:08 pts/0 00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/mariamysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql

root 10391 17846 0 16:16 pts/0 00:00:00 grep mysql

[root@zabbix_server mariadb-5.5.31]# mysql
