I think there should also be mention of YottaDB in this document. almost all of the steps would be the same.

it might be better to specify the x86_64 version as i don't think 32bit platforms are used much anymore.


Typically GT.M binary distributions follow the following convention:
gtm_V{versionid}_{platform}_{arch}_pro.tar.gz. An example using the latest
version of GT.M as of this writing is: ``gtm_V61000_linux_i686_pro.tar.gz``.
