1. Copy the sample script "/opt/charon/bin/charon.service" ( "/opt/charon/bin/charon.service" for Fedora Core Linux ) to your home directory ( Red Hat Linux Linux 6.x) or to "/usr/lib/systemd/system/" directory (Fedora Coreor to your home directory (Red Hat Linux 6.x)), for example:

   Red Hat Linux 6.x	$ cp /opt/charon/bin/charon /my_services/mv3k6_service $ chmod 755 /my_services/mv3k6_service
   Red Hat Linux 7.x and CentOS 7.x and Fedora Core	$ cp /opt/charon/bin/charon.service /usr/lib/systemd/system/mv3k6.service $ chmod 755 /usr/lib/systemd/system/mv3k6.service

2. Edit the renamed file to replace sample values of the following parameters, for example:

   Red Hat Linux 6.x	exec="/opt/charon/bin/mv3k6" prog="my_mv3k6" config="/my_services/mv3k6-service.cfg"
   Red Hat Linux 7.x and Fedora Coreand CentOS 7.x	ExecStart=/opt/charon/bin/mv3k6 -d /my_services/mv3k6-service.cfg WorkingDirectory=/my_services

             

3. Create and edit configuration file ( "/my_services/mv3k6-service.cfg" in the examples above ) the way it was described before and make sure that the following pre-requisites are met:

   • OPA0 must be configured as virtual port or physical console, not as operator console, for example:

     load virtual_serial_line OPA0 port=10003 #load operator_console OPA0

     Div
     class pagebreak

   • Use only absolute paths to log, toy clock, nvram files and all the other data such as disk images etc. The names of the references files must be unique too, for example

     ... set session log="/my_services/my_mv3k6.log" set toy container="/my_services/my_mv3k6.dat" load RQDX3/RQDX3 DUA set DUA container[0]="/my_services/mv3k6_daemon_boot_disk.vdisk" ...

   • Make sure the same physical devices are not used by other CHARON-VAX daemon, same for the OPA0 console port number.
     
     

Once configuration file is ready issue the following commands (the specifics belongs to the examples above) to install and start CHARON-VAX as daemon:

...

To stop CHARON-VAX daemon use the following command, for example:

Please note that before stopping CHARON-VAX service, one must shutdown the operating system running by CHARON-VAX.

To remove CHARON-VAX daemon use the following commands, for example:
