Software Installation and Configuration Installing an HPI-B Daemon

2.2.1Installing an HPI-B Daemon

As previously mentioned, it depends on the ATCA-F120 release if the HPI-B daemon files are preinstalled or not. If they are not preinstalled or if you want to upgrade existing HPI-B files, you need to obtain the desired RPM files and install them manually as follows.

Installing the HPI-B Daemon Files

In order to install/upgrade the HPI-B daemon files on an ATCA-F120 blade, proceed as follows.

1.Connect to the ATCA-F120 blade where you wish to install the HPI-B daemon files.

2.Copy the RPM file to the ATCA-F120.

3.If applicable, enter rpm -e <Old HPI-B daemon package name> to uninstall existing daemon files

4.If applicable, enter rpm -e <Old HPI-B client base package name> to uninstall an installed HPI-B client base package

5.Enter rpm -i <New HPI-B client base package RPM>

This installs the new HPI-B client base package files.

6.Enter rpm -i <New HPI-B daemon RPM>

This installs the new daemon files.

The following table lists all HPI-B related directories available on the ATCA-F120 after the installation.

Table 2-2 Overview of HPI-B Directories and Files on ATCA-F120

Directory	Description
/opt/motorola/bin	Contains HPI-B daemon binaries and compiled client
	example applications.
/opt/motorola/etc/bbs-hpib	Contains configuration files used to configure the HPI-B
	daemon and clients. See Configuring an HPI Daemon on
	page 18 for details on configuring the HPI daemon.
/etc/init.d	Daemon start/stop script
/opt/motorola/lib	Shared libraries

2.2.2Configuring an HPI Daemon

At start-up, the HPI daemon reads the following configuration file: /opt/motorola/etc/bbs-hpib/bbs-hpib.conf.

The only entry which you must configure manually once is the IP address and port used to access the SAMs in the Centellis 4620. Both SAMs have a virtual IP address assigned to them which is to be used specifically for RMCP-based accesses. This is the IP address which you must specify in the configuration file.
