  • Upgrading to this Charon-PAR from an older version requires a license update (independent of license type used). Please contact your VAR or Stromasys representative to plan the update.
  • Applicable to HASP licenses only: Charon-PAR version 3.0 and higher is incompatible with licenses of earlier versions. Earlier product versions are incompatible with licenses for Charon-PAR 3.0 and higher. Charon-PAR/PA3 licenses for version 3.0 are not backward compatible for emulators running with version 2.x.

...

  • For the installation of a Charon-PAR/PA3 emulated system, a preinstalled MPE/iX 7.5 disk image (mpe75a.dsk.bz2) is required. This will be provided by Stromasys.
  • For the installation of a Charon-PAR/PA9 emulated system, a HP-UX ISO is required. It must be provided by the customer.

Sentinel Runtime RPM Installation

...

This package is a prerequisite for the Charon-PAR emulator package. So it must be installed. However, the runtime software installed is only needed for HASP licensing. It is not relevant for VE licensing.

Important points:

  • The aksusbd package version 7.63 requires the 32-bit glibc-library. On supported Linux distributions, this library is available through the standard repositories. The relevant package is glibc.i686 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS.
  • Normally, the aksusbd package installation with yum or dnf installs the 32-bit glibc and other dependency automatically (provided package repositories are available). Red Hat Enterprise must be registered to access the Red Hat repositories, or the installation CD must be mounted. Should the Charon host system not have access to the Internet, please refer to How to install the glibc.i686 package without an Internet connection for further information.
  • When installing the aksusbd package version 8.13 in some CentOS 7.x environments it was observed that the aksusbd service did not start automatically after a new installation or an upgrade. The following error was displayed during the installation: Failed to restart aksusbd.service: Access denied. If this happens, uninstall the aksusbd package and reboot the system. After rebooting the system, re-install the package. The cause of this sporadic problem has not yet been identified.
