You can see if you have got the mysql server installed with

  rpm -q mysql-server

You can see what other mysql-related rpms are installed with

  rpm -qa | grep mysql

If the server isn't installed you can install it with (as root)

  yum install mysql-server

Once it is installed, you can start with with (as root)

  service mysqld start


hth,
