- RPM-based installation - this installation requires root password. The product can be installed either on a shared file system or on each node of your cluster.
- Non-RPM installation - this installation does not require root access and it installs all scripts, libraries, and files in the desired directory (usually$HOMEfor the user).
Scripts, include files and libraries for different architectures, are located in different directories. By default, you can find binary files and all needed scripts under the
directory.
