Comment: Banner added on VAX + AXP on the same server + uninstall required

  1. Login as system administrator ("root") to the host system. Because Sentinel HASP runtime relies on 32-bit compatibility libraries to run on Linux, the 32-bit compatibility libraries should be installed first:

    # yum install glibc.i686

          

  2. Create a special directory for the CHARON-VAX distribution and copy the TAR.GZ files there. Set this directory as the default with a "cd" command as shown in the following example:

    # mkdir /charon_dist
    # cp /temp/charon-vax-4.7-17101.68704.fc20.tar.gz /charon_dist
    # cd /charon_dist
Warning
titleWARNING
  • If you plan to install CHARON-AXP on the same server, both products, CHARON-AXP and CHARON-VAX, will have to be the same build number
  • If you upgrade from a previous version of CHARON-VAX, please stop all running CHARON virtual machines and uninstall CHARON products before proceeding with the installation steps described below

Distribution preparation

  1. Extract the content of the distribution TAR.GZ files to the current directory:

    # tar -xvzf charon-vax-<VER>-<BN>.<VC>.<ZZ>.tar.gz

    where:

     

    Description

    VER

    Version of CHARON-VAX product, for example 4.7

    BN

    Build Number of CHARON-VAX product, for example 17101

    VC

    68704 - CHARON-VAX product vendor code

    ZZ

    CHARON-VAX target operating system identifier. For Fedora Core 20 'ZZ' value is 'fc20', for Red Hat Linux 7.1 the value is 'el71'

    Example:

    # tar -xvzf charon-vax-4.7-17101.68704.fc20.tar.gz 

    As result, a new directory "charon-vax-<VER>-<BN>.<VC>.<ZZ>" will be created.
     

  2. Switch to the directory, created by "tar" on the previous step:

    # cd charon-vax-<VER>-<BN>.<VC>.<ZZ>

    Example:

    # cd charon-vax-4.7-17101.68704.fc20

         

  3. The distribution directory contains the following RPM files with additional material, libraries and utilities:
