== Installing X-Pack
After you install {es}, you can optionally obtain and install {xpack}.
For more information about how to obtain {xpack},
see https://www.elastic.co/products/x-pack.
You must run the version of {xpack} that matches the version of {es} you are running.
IMPORTANT: If you are installing {xpack} for the first time on an existing
cluster, you must perform a full cluster restart. Installing {xpack} enables
security and security must be enabled on ALL nodes in a cluster for the cluster
to operate correctly. When upgrading you can usually perform
a {ref}/rolling-upgrades.html[rolling upgrade].
To install {xpack} in {es}:
. Run `bin/elasticsearch-plugin install` from `ES_HOME` on each node in your cluster:
+
--
[source,shell]
----------------------------------------------------------
bin/elasticsearch-plugin install x-pack
----------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: If you are using a <<xpack-package-installation, DEB/RPM distribution>>
of {es}, run the installation with superuser permissions. To
perform an offline installation, <<xpack-installing-offline, download the X-Pack binaries>>.
--
. Confirm that you want to grant {xpack} additional permissions.
+
--
TIP: Specify the `--batch` option when running the install command to
automatically grant these permissions and bypass these install prompts.
--
+
.. {xpack} needs these permissions to set the threat context loader during
install so {watcher} can send email notifications.

engine. The native controller ensures that the launched process is a valid

For information about installing {xpack} in {kib} and Logstash, see
{xpack-ref}/installing-xpack.html[Installing {xpack}].
[IMPORTANT]
=============================================================================
SSL/TLS encryption is disabled by default, which means user credentials are
passed in the clear. **Do not deploy to production without enabling encryption!**
For more information, see {xpack-ref}/encrypting-communications.html[Encrypting
Communications].
You must also **change the passwords for the built-in `elastic` user and the
`kibana` user that enables {kib} to communicate with {es} before
deploying to production**. For more information,
see {xpack-ref}/setting-up-authentication.html[Setting Up User Authentication].

[[xpack-package-installation]]
=== Installing {xpack} on a DEB/RPM Package Installation
If you use the DEB/RPM packages to install {es}, by default {es} is installed
in `/usr/share/elasticsearch` and the configuration files are stored
in `/etc/elasticsearch`. (For the complete list of default paths, see
{ref}/deb.html#deb-layout[Debian Directory Layout] and
{ref}/rpm.html#rpm-layout[RPM Directory Layout] in the {es} Reference.)
To install {xpack} on a DEB/RPM package installation, you need to run
`bin/plugin install` from the `/usr/share/elasticsearch` directory with superuser
permissions:
[source,shell]
----------------------------------------------------------
cd /usr/share/elasticsearch
sudo bin/elasticsearch-plugin install x-pack
----------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: If the configuration files are not in `/etc/elasticsearch` you
need to specify the location of the configuration files by
setting the system property `es.path.conf` to the config path via
`ES_JAVA_OPTS="-Des.path.conf=<path>"` or by setting the
environment variable `CONF_DIR` via `CONF_DIR=<path>`.

[[xpack-installing-offline]]
=== Installing {xpack} on Offline Machines
The plugin install scripts require direct Internet access to download and
install {xpack}. If your server doesnt have Internet access, you
can manually download and install {xpack}.
To install {xpack} on a machine that doesn't have Internet access:
. Manually download the {xpack} zip file:
https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-{version}.zip[
+https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-{version}.zip+]
(https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-{version}.zip.sha1[sha1])
. Transfer the zip file to a temporary directory on the offline machine. (Do NOT
put the file in the {es} plugins directory.)
. Run `bin/elasticsearch-plugin install` from the {es} install directory
and specify the location of the {xpack} zip file. For example:
+
--
["source","sh",subs="attributes"]
----------------------------------------------------------
bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file:///path/to/file/x-pack-{version}.zip
----------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: You must specify an absolute path to the zip file after the `file://` protocol.
