Spirent TestCenter: Is it possible to install Spirent TestCenter on Linux without Postgres?

Environment/Versions
  • Spirent TestCenter.
  • Linux.
  • Postgres.
Answer
Sometimes when you run the install_Spirent_TestCenter_Auto_Linux64_5.11.sh file on a Linux device, it shows the message below:
-> Running transaction check
---> Package postgresql10-libs.x86_64 0:10.16-1PGDG.rhel7 will be installed
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
=======================================================================
Some packages in your transaction are brought to you by GetPageSpeed:
- geoipupdate-3.1.1-4.el7.x86_64
- popt-1.16-14.el7.x86_64
To enable package installs, subscribe using the following link:

If this is the case, you can run the .sh install on a non-root user; this way the installation will give you the option to install Spirent TestCenter without Postgres, which is used only for TestCenter IQ.

NOTE: If the .sh fails at Postgres, Spirent TesttCenter may be usable since all the necessary files should have been installed at this point.
