## 5. Installation

### 5.1 DIY installation

you can use [Cluster Operation Tool](docs/fcfs-ops-tool.md) to deploy FastCFS

step by step please see [INSTALL](docs/INSTALL.md)

recommend to execute libfuse_setup.sh for compiling and installing libfuse

### 5.2 easy installation

libfastcommon, libserverframe, fastDIR, faststore and FastCFS can be compiled, installed and auto configurated by fastcfs.sh

fastcfs.sh can automatically pull or update above five projects codes from GitHub, compile and install according to dependency orders, and automatically generate cluster related configuration files according to the config templates.

```
git clone https://github.com/happyfish100/FastCFS.git; cd FastCFS/
```

fastcfs.sh usage:

```
* install: pull/update codes from gitee, then make and install
* config: copy config files and configure them with local ip
* start | stop | restart: for service processes control
```

one click to build (deploy and run) single node demo environment (MUST run by root):

```
./helloWorld.sh
```

or execute following commands (MUST run by root):

```
./fastcfs.sh install
./fastcfs.sh config --force
./fastcfs.sh restart
```

now you can see the mounted path of FastCFS by the command:

```
df -h /opt/fastcfs/fuse | grep fuse
```

## 6. Benchmark

FastCFS has huge better performance than Ceph: the IOPS ratio of sequential write is 6.x, sequential read is 2.x, random write is about 2.0.
