Suggest edits

Prerequisites

Before you begin the installation process:

  • Install Postgres on the same host. See:

  • Set up the EDB repository

    Setting up the repository is a one-time task. If you have already set up your repository, you don't need to perform this step.

    To determine if your repository exists, enter this command:

    zypper lr -E | grep enterprisedb

    If no output is generated, the repository isn't installed.

    To set up the EDB repository:

    1. Go to EDB repositories.

    2. Select the button that provides access to the EDB repository.

    3. Select the platform and software that you want to download.

    4. Follow the instructions for setting up the EDB repository.

  • Install the MySQL community repository

    sudo wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-sles12-5.noarch.rpm
rpm --import /etc/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql-2022

  • Enable the MySQL8 repository and disable the MySQL 5 repository

    sudo zypper modifyrepo -e mysql80-community
sudo zypper modifyrepo -d mysql57-community

  • Activate the required SUSE module

    sudo SUSEConnect -p PackageHub/12.5/ppc64le
sudo SUSEConnect -p sle-sdk/12.5/ppc64le

  • Refresh the metadata

    sudo zypper refresh

Install the package

sudo zypper -n install edb-as<xx>-mysql<y>_fdw

Where <xx> is the version of EDB Postgres Advanced server and <y> is the version of MySQL to be installed. For example if EDB Postgres Version is 15 and MySQL version is 8 then the package name is edb-as15-mysql8-fdw.
