+# Installing Icinga Certificate Monitoring
+
+The recommended way to install Icinga Certificate Monitoring
+and its dependencies is to use prebuilt packages for
+all supported platforms from our official release repository.
+Please note that [Icinga Web](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web) is required
+and if it is not already set up, it is best to do this first.
+
+The following steps will guide you through installing and setting up Icinga Certificate Monitoring.
+<!-- {% else %} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+
+## Installing the Package
+
+If the [repository](https://packages.icinga.com) is not configured yet, please add it first.
+Then use your distribution's package manager to install the `icinga-x509` package
+or install [from source](02-Installation.md.d/From-Source.md).
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+## Setting up the Database
+
+### Setting up a MySQL or MariaDB Database
+
+The module needs a MySQL/MariaDB database with the schema that's provided in the `/usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/x509/schema/mysql.schema.sql` file.
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+
+**Note:** If you haven't installed this module from packages, then please adapt the schema path to the correct installation path.
+
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+You can use the following sample command for creating the MySQL/MariaDB database. Please change the password:
+
+```
+CREATE DATABASE x509;
+GRANT CREATE, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, ALTER, CREATE VIEW, INDEX, EXECUTE ON x509.* TO x509@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';
+```
+
+After, you can import the schema using the following command:
+
+```
+mysql -p -u root x509 < /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/x509/schema/mysql.schema.sql
+```
+
+### Setting up a PostgreSQL Database
+
+The module needs a PostgreSQL database with the schema that's provided in the `/usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/x509/schema/pgsql.schema.sql` file.
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+
+**Note:** If you haven't installed this module from packages, then please adapt the schema path to the correct installation path.
+
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+You can use the following sample command for creating the PostgreSQL database. Please change the password:
+
+```sql
+CREATE USER x509 WITH PASSWORD 'secret';
+CREATE DATABASE x509
+  WITH OWNER x509
+  ENCODING 'UTF8'
+  LC_COLLATE = 'en_US.UTF-8'
+  LC_CTYPE = 'en_US.UTF-8';
+```
+
+After, you can import the schema using the following command:
+
+```
+psql -U x509 x509 -a -f /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/x509/schema/pgsql.schema.sql
+```
+
+This concludes the installation. You should now be able to import CA certificates and set up scan jobs.
+Please read the [Configuration](03-Configuration.md) section for details.
