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

   Example:

   Red Hat Linux 6.x	$ cp /opt/charon/bin/charon /my_services/mv3k6_service $ chmod 755 /my_services/mv3k6_service
   Red Hat Linux 8x, 7.x and CentOS 8x, 7.	$ 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.

   Example:

   Red Hat Linux 6.x	exec="/opt/charon/bin/mv3k6" prog="my_mv3k6" config="/my_services/mv3k6-service.cfg"
   Red Hat Linux 8.x, 7.x and CentOS 8.x, 7.x	ExecStart=/opt/charon/bin/mv3k6 -d /my_services/mv3k6-service.cfg WorkingDirectory=/my_services

    "my_mv3k6" is a service name in the example above

            

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

   • OPA0 must be configured as a virtual port or physical console, not as an operator console.

     Example:

     load virtual_serial_line OPA0 port=10003 #load operator_console OPA0

     
     

   • 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.

     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 daemons and the OPA0 console port number is unique across the CHARON server.
