Ensure that the machine where you plan to install Qualitia Server and Qualitia Client meets all minimum system requirements.
Ensure that an appropriate UTC Time Zone is set for the server, anything other than UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).
Ensure that you have access to different communication ports required from Qualitia Server and Client machines.

Important Notice

It is strongly recommended to keep the database server and Qualitia server in the same local network (LAN). Keeping them in different network environments will result in performance issues due to network latency.

System, Database, and Network Privileges

Depending on your organizational policies and structure, you may have to interact with following roles and departments:

Server / System Administrator
Database Administrator

Network Administrator

Qualitia needs access to a few network ports to communicate between components like Version Control, Data Store Servers and so forth. Depending on your organizational policies and structure, you may have to place requests to open certain ports on the machine where Qualitia Server is installed.

Following is the list of all the communication ports Qualitia needs access to:

1947	Qualitia Licensing Service (on Client and Server machines)
8889	Qualitia Server
8887	Qualitia Web Service

4001	Mobile Object Spy Server
21000 to 22000	Mobile Object Spy Agent (any port from the specified range)

All the port numbers mentioned above are the default communication ports used by these applications. In case you are changing the default ports, you must open or unblock corresponding ports.
