  2. Installation type:
    1. Development Version: Only recommended for advanced users, the Development version has new features, but is not guaranteed to work.
    2. Binaries: The installer should have automatically detected your binary type, but if you have a server cluster with multiple architectures, select additional binaries.


To begin the installation, click on Finish. The progress window will give a detailed listing of install steps.
