# Install P4 Server

How to install the Perforce service or upgrade an existing installation for connected clients.

- For the list of "Supported Platforms for p4d, p4, p4p and p4broker", see the Release Notes for your P4 Server version number. For example, `https://help.perforce.com/helix-core/release-notes/2025.1/relnotes.txt` is for the 2025.1 release.
- For the list of supported operating systems for Linux package-based installation, see Linux package-based installation.
- Many of the examples in this book are based on the UNIX version of the Perforce service. In most cases, the examples apply equally to both Windows and UNIX installations. The material for UNIX also applies to macOS.
- For information on how to install a server that supports clients who want to work disconnected, see the DVCS installation of P4 Server for Distributed Versioning (DVCS).

- If you already have an installation and now want a more recent recent version, see Upgrade the server.
