# Installing Icinga DB
The recommended way to install Icinga DB is to use prebuilt packages for
all supported platforms from our official release repository.
Please follow the steps listed for your target operating system,
which guide you through setting up the repository and installing Icinga DB.
To upgrade an existing Icinga DB installation to a newer version,
see the [Upgrading](04-Upgrading.md) documentation for the necessary steps.
![Icinga DB Daemon](images/icingadb-daemon.png)
Before installing Icinga DB, make sure you have installed [Icinga 2](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-2),
set up a Redis® server, and enabled the `icingadb` feature.
The Icinga 2 installation documentation covers all the necessary steps.
Additionally, Icinga offers the `icingadb-redis` package for all supported operating systems,
which ships an up-to-date Redis® open source server version and is pre-configured for the Icinga DB components.
!!! tip
Although Icinga DB can run anywhere in an Icinga environment,
we recommend to install it where the corresponding Icinga 2 node and Redis® server is running to
keep latency between the components low.

## Adding Icinga Package Repository
The recommended way to install Icinga DB is to use prebuilt packages from our official release repository.
!!! tip
If you install Icinga DB on a node that has Icinga 2 or Icinga Web installed via packages,
proceed to [installing the Icinga DB package](#installing-icinga-db-package) as
the repository is already configured.
Here's how to add the official release repository:
<!-- {% if amazon_linux %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->

<!-- {% endif %} -->
!!! info
A paid repository subscription is required for Amazon Linux 2 repositories. Get more information on
[icinga.com/subscription](https://icinga.com/subscription).
Don't forget to fill in the username and password section with appropriate credentials in the local .repo file.
```bash
rpm --import https://packages.icinga.com/icinga.key
wget https://packages.icinga.com/subscription/amazon/ICINGA-release.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ICINGA-release.repo

```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
<!-- {% if rhel %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->

<!-- {% endif %} -->
## Installing Icinga DB Package
Use your distribution's package manager to install the `icingadb` package as follows:
<!-- {% if amazon_linux %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
#### Amazon Linux 2
<!-- {% endif %} -->
```bash
yum install icingadb
```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
<!-- {% if centos %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
#### CentOS
<!-- {% endif %} -->
!!! info
Note that installing Icinga DB is only supported on CentOS 7 as CentOS 8 is EOL.
```bash
yum install icingadb
```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
<!-- {% if debian or ubuntu %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
#### Debian / Ubuntu
<!-- {% endif %} -->
```bash
apt install icingadb
```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
<!-- {% if rhel %} -->
#### RHEL 8 or Later
```bash
dnf install icingadb
```
#### RHEL 7
```bash
yum install icingadb
```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
<!-- {% if sles %} -->
<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
#### SLES
<!-- {% endif %} -->
```bash
zypper install icingadb
```
<!-- {% endif %} -->
## Setting up the Database
A MySQL (≥5.5), MariaDB (≥10.1), or PostgreSQL (≥9.6) database is required to run Icinga DB.
Please follow the steps listed for your target database,
which guide you through setting up the database and user and importing the schema.
![Icinga DB Database](images/icingadb-database.png)
!!! info
In high availability setups, all Icinga DB instances must write to the same database.
### Setting up a MySQL or MariaDB Database
If you use a version of MySQL < 5.7 or MariaDB < 10.2, the following server options must be set:
```
innodb_file_format=barracuda
innodb_file_per_table=1
innodb_large_prefix=1
```
Set up a MySQL database for Icinga DB:
```
# mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE icingadb;
CREATE USER 'icingadb'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'CHANGEME';
GRANT ALL ON icingadb.* TO 'icingadb'@'localhost';
```
After creating the database, import the Icinga DB schema using the following command:
```
mysql -u root -p icingadb </usr/share/icingadb/schema/mysql/schema.sql
```
### Setting up a PostgreSQL Database
Set up a PostgreSQL database for Icinga DB:
```
# su -l postgres
createuser -P icingadb
createdb -E UTF8 --locale en_US.UTF-8 -T template0 -O icingadb icingadb
psql icingadb <<<'CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS citext;'
```
The `CREATE EXTENSION` command requires the `postgresql-contrib` package.
Edit `pg_hba.conf`, insert the following before everything else:
```
local all icingadb md5
host all icingadb 0.0.0.0/0 md5
host all icingadb ::/0 md5
```
To apply these changes, run `systemctl reload postgresql`.
After creating the database, import the Icinga DB schema using the following command:
```
psql -U icingadb icingadb < /usr/share/icingadb/schema/pgsql/schema.sql
```
## Configuring Icinga DB
Icinga DB installs its configuration file to `/etc/icingadb/config.yml`,
pre-populating most of the settings for a local setup. Before running Icinga DB,
adjust the Redis® and database credentials and, if necessary, the connection configuration.
The configuration file explains general settings.
All available settings can be found under [Configuration](03-Configuration.md).
## Running Icinga DB
The `icingadb` package automatically installs the necessary systemd unit files to run Icinga DB.
Please run the following command to enable and start its service:
```bash
systemctl enable --now icingadb
```
## Installing Icinga DB Web
With Icinga 2, Redis®, Icinga DB and the database fully set up, it is now time to install Icinga DB Web,
which connects to both Redis® and the database to display and work with the monitoring data.
![Icinga DB Web](images/icingadb-web.png)
The Icinga DB Web package is also included in the Icinga repository, and since it is already set up,
you have completed the instructions here and can proceed to
