# Step D: Install the AWS Elemental Software
<a name="clean-install-sm-upg-install-sw"></a>

These steps must be performed on each system where you are installing AWS Elemental software, either directly at the machine or from your workstation via SSH. Make sure that you use the `.run` file that corresponds to the `.iso` file that you used to reinstall the operating system.

1. At the Linux command line, log in with the *elemental* user credentials.

   Run the installer as follows. Use the actual filename of your .run file, rather than the example below.

   ```
   [elemental@hostname ~]$ sudo sh ./elemental_production_statmux_dg_version_short;.nnnnn.run -l -z -t
   ```

   where -l is a letter, not a number.

1. You are prompted as described in the table below.

   Then the software will be installed. Finally, this message will appear:

   ```
   Installation and configuration complete!
     Please open a web browser and point it to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to get to the web
     interface.
     Enjoy!
   ```

1. Start a web browser and start the AWS Elemental Statmux web interface by typing the following:

   ```
   http://<hostname>
   ```

   Make sure the web interface displays.
