Installation and startup
Untar the binary distribution in the desired location,
e.g. /usr/local/mariadb
e.g. /usr/local/mariadb-maxscale
Alternatively build from the source code using the instructions
in the README file and execute make install.
in the [Building MaxScale from Source Code](../Getting-Started/Building-MaxScale-from-Source-Code.md) document.
Simply set the environment variable MAXSCALE_HOME to point to the
MaxScale directory, found inside the path into which the files have been copied,
e.g. MAXSCALE_HOME=/usr/local/mariadb-maxscale
Also you will need to optionally set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the 'lib' folder,
found inside the path into which the files have been copied,
e.g. LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mariadb-maxscale/lib
Because we need the libmysqld library for parsing we must create a
valid my.cnf file to enable the library to be used. Copy the my.cnf
to $MAXSCALE_HOME/mysql/my.cnf.
To start MaxScale execute the command 'maxscale' from the bin folder,
e.g. /usr/local/mariadb-maxscale/bin/maxscale
You can start MaxScale using `service maxscale start` or `systemctl start maxscale` if you installed the init.d scripts
or by manually starting the process from the bin folder of the installation directory.

help for an overview of the commands and help <command> for the more
detailed help on commands. Use the add user command to add a new user,
this will also remove the admin/mariadb user.
