#Percona Toolkit
|
||||
|
||||
*Percona Toolkit* is a collection of advanced command-line tools used by
|
||||
[Percona](http://www.percona.com/) support staff to perform a variety of
|
||||
MySQL and system tasks that are too difficult or complex to perform manually.
|
||||
|
||||
These tools are ideal alternatives to private or "one-off" scripts because
|
||||
they are professionally developed, formally tested, and fully documented.
|
||||
They are also fully self-contained, so installation is quick and easy and
|
||||
no libraries are installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Percona Toolkit is developed and supported by Percona Inc. For more
|
||||
information and other free, open-source software developed by Percona,
|
||||
visit [http://www.percona.com/software/](http://www.percona.com/software/).
|
||||
|
||||
##Installing
|
||||
|
||||
To install all tools, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
perl Makefile.PL
|
||||
make
|
||||
make test
|
||||
make install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You probably need to be root to `make install`. On most systems, the tools
|
||||
are installed in /usr/local/bin. See the INSTALL file for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
##Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Run `man percona-toolkit` to see a list of installed tools, then `man tool`
|
||||
to read the embedded documentation for a specific tool. You can also read
|
||||
the documentation online at [http://www.percona.com/software/percona-toolkit/](http://www.percona.com/software/percona-toolkit/).
