2.1Overview

This section describes how to set-up HPI-B daemons and clients and how to install all files needed to run client applications. Generally, all files are delivered in the form of RPMs. The content of an RPM is reflected in its naming scheme.

The following table describes the used naming scheme of the client and daemon RPMs. The placeholder "architecture" stands for the supported CPU architecture of the respective blade where the client or daemon is to run and can be any of the following:

zx86

Intel IA-32 bit blades, such as PrAMC-7210/7211

zx86_64

Intel IA-64-bit blades, such as the ATCA-7221

zppc_e500v2

PowerPC based blades, such as the ATCA-F120

Table 2-1 RPM Files for HPI-B Clients and Daemons

RPM File Name

Description

 

 

bbs-hpib-<version>-

This RPM is the HPI-B base package. It contains shared

1.<architecture>-

libraries to be used by HPI-B clients and daemons, as well as

<distribution>-<OS>.rpm

compiled example applications and client configuration files.

 

This package is required both by HPI-B daemons and clients.

 

 

bbs-hpib-daemon-<version>-

This RPM contain all files which are related to the HPI-B

1.<architecture>-

daemon: executables, libraries and configuration file.

<distribution>-<os>.rpm.

 

The files required for the HPI-B daemon come as part of the ATCA-F120 software. Depending on the particular ATCA-F120 release, the HPI-B daemon files are already preinstalled or not. Check the respective documentation of the ATCA-F120 itself and of the system where the ATCA-F120 is used.

If the HPI-B software is not preinstalled or if you want to upgrade the installed HPI-B software, then you can obtain the daemon files as an RPM file. The file can be obtained from Emerson.
