==Install mariadb 'alongside' mysql==
===Raw notes on mariadb installation===
===Installation===
These installation notes are based on the notes from From: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/installing-mariadb-alongside-mysql/
Yum cannot be used for a 'side-by-side' installation (where mysql is left in place and mariadb is run as a separate service).
====Create service account====
Create a user named '''mariadb''' in server-manager. This user account will be used by mariadb when running, and does not need to have a password set.
====Download MariaDB and extract into /opt====
<nowiki>mkdir -p addons
cd addons
RELEASE=5.5.34
wget https://downloads.mariadb.org/interstitial/mariadb-$RELEASE/kvm-bintar-hardy-x86/mariadb-$RELEASE-linux-i686.tar.gz/from/http://mirror.jmu.edu/pub/mariadb
cd /opt
tar zxvf ~/addons/mariadb-$RELEASE-linux-i686.tar.gz</nowiki>
====Create folders and links====
<nowiki>RELEASE=5.5.34
cd /opt
ln -s mariadb-$RELEASE-linux-i686 mariadb
mkdir mariadb-data
