Installing MarkLogic Server

Configuring a Single Host or the First Host in a Cluster

To configure this installation as either a single host or as the first host in a cluster, perform the following steps:

  1. Install and start MarkLogic as described in Installing MarkLogic and Starting MarkLogic Server.

  2. Log into the Admin Interface in a browser. It is on port 8001 of the host in which MarkLogic is running (for example, on the localhost, http://localhost:8001). The Server Install page appears:
