Starting October 11, 2024 (Zephyr Enterprise 8.2), the Zephyr Enterprise documentation moved from its current location on Atlassian to a dedicated, standalone Zephyr Enterprise documentation page. Please see: https://support.smartbear.com/zephyr-enterprise/docs/en/zephyr-enterprise/zephyr-installation-and-upgrade-guides/zephyr-on-premise-production-installation/set-up-zephyr-data-center-cluster/1--connect-to-an-external-database.html

  • You must have a connector JAR file for your MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle database.

  • We explain how to install a primary database, however, we recommend that you have one or several database replicas to ensure better availability and performance.

You can check the connection to your database when installing Zephyr on your cluster nodes. To do that, click Test Connection on the Configure Database screen of the installation program (see Install Zephyr Enterprise on Nodes). If Zephyr fails to connect to it, the installation will be interrupted.
