+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin the installation process:
+
+- Set up the EDB repository.
+
+  Setting up the repository is a one-time task. If you have already set up your repository, you don't need to perform this step.
+
+  To determine if your repository exists, enter this command:
+
+  `zypper lr -E | grep enterprisedb`
+
+  If no output is generated, the repository isn't installed.
+
+  To set up the EDB repository:
+
+  1. Go to [EDB repositories](https://www.enterprisedb.com/repos-downloads).
+
+  1. Select the button that provides access to the EDB repository.
+  1. Select the platform and software that you want to download.
+
+  1. Follow the instructions for setting up the EDB repository.
+
+- Activate the required SUSE module:
+  ```shell
+  sudo SUSEConnect -p PackageHub/12.5/ppc64le
+  sudo SUSEConnect -p sle-sdk/12.5/ppc64le
+
+  ```
+- Refresh the metadata:
+  ```shell
+  sudo zypper refresh
+  ```
+
+## Install the package
+
+```shell
+sudo zypper -n install edb-edbplus
+```
+
+## Initial configuration
+
+After performing a Linux installation of EDB\*Plus, you must set the values of environment variables that allow EDB\*Plus to locate your Java installation:
+
+```shell
+export JAVA_HOME=<path_to_java>
+export PATH=<path_to_java>/bin:$PATH
+```

+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin the installation process:
+
+- Install Postgres on the same host (not needed for witness nodes).
+
+  - See [Installing EDB Postgres Advanced Server](/epas/latest/installing/)
+
+  - See [PostgreSQL Downloads](https://www.postgresql.org/download/)
+
+- Set up the EDB repository.
+

+  sudo SUSEConnect -p PackageHub/12.5/ppc64le
+  sudo SUSEConnect -p sle-sdk/12.5/ppc64le

+- Refresh the metadata:
+  ```shell
+  sudo zypper refresh
+  ```
+
+## Install the package
+
+```shell
+sudo zypper -n install edb-efm<4x>
+```
+
+Where `<4x>` is the version of Failover Manager that you're installing. For example, if you're installing version 4.9, the package name is `edb-efm49`.
+
+The installation process creates a user named efm that has privileges to invoke scripts that control the Failover Manager service for clusters owned by enterprisedb or postgres.
+
+## Initial configuration
+
+If you're using Failover Manager to monitor a cluster owned by a user other than enterprisedb or postgres, see [Extending Failover Manager permissions](../../04_configuring_efm/04_extending_efm_permissions/#extending_efm_permissions).
+
+After installing on each node of the cluster:
+
+1.  Modify the [cluster properties file](../../04_configuring_efm/01_cluster_properties/#cluster_properties) on each node.
+2.  Modify the [cluster members file](../../04_configuring_efm/03_cluster_members/#cluster_members) on each node.
+3.  If applicable, configure and test virtual IP address settings and any scripts that are identified in the cluster properties file.
+4.  Start the agent on each node of the cluster. For more information, see [Controlling the Failover Manager service](../../08_controlling_efm_service/).
