Parasoft DTP requires a relational database. A DTP distribution is available that automatically installs and configures an embedded database server so you can immediately begin using DTP after installation. Most organizations, however, connect their DTP deployments can be connected to an external MySQL, PostgreSQL, or Oracle database server which provides greater flexibility and scalability. If you installed the embedded database distribution, you can still connect to an external database server if necessary (see Configuring the Database Connection). This section describes installing and configuring MySQL servers. Contact your Oracle or PostgreSQL administrator for details on installing and configuring those database servers.

DTP Enterprise Pack, which includes Extension Designer, ships with it's its own embedded MongoDB. If you are installing DTP Enterprise Pack, and intend to use the embedded MongoDB, we recommend using an XFS file system in Linux per the MongoDB documentation  or an NTFS file system in Windows, as per the MongoDB documentation and described in the excerpt below. If you are planning to use an external MongoDB instead, refer to the requirements for whatever version you intend to use.

If the library is not already on your Linux system, install it using the appropriate package manager for your distribution. The following instructions are provided to help you install libaio on several common Linux distributions:

Red Hat and CentOS
