The Charon-SSP Manager is the main interface for managing the emulated SPARC systems running on a Charon-SSP AWS EC2 host. Therefore, the Charon-SSP Manager must be installed on every local system on customer premises that will be used to manage the Charon instances running on the Charon-SSP cloud host.
...
- Connect to the public IP address of the instance via SFTP using the private key assigned during launch and the user charon:
$ sftp -i <path-to-private-key> charon@<public-ip-of-aws-instance> - Download the required package:
sftp> get charon-manager-ssp-<version>.[rpm | deb]
Additional Prerequisite Considerations
When installing the Charon Manager on the Charon-SSP host in the cloud (for example to display it via a remote X11-connection) instead of on a local management system, additional packages may have to be installed that normally are already available in a workstation environment. In the current version, the Charon-SSP manager installation does not check these dependencies.
In particular, the Charon-SSP Manager requires the following packages:
- libX11
- xorg-x11-server-utils
- gtk2
- ibssh2
- xorg-x11-xauth
The packages above have their own dependencies. Install the above packages with the yum command in order to have their dependencies automatically installed. If your server does not have access to the standard operating system repositories, refer to this document for instructions on setting up a local repositories.
Note:
- The exact list of additionally required packages depends on what is already installed on the server.
- Future versions of Charon-SSP may handle this situation differently and enforce the dependency installation during the installation of the Charon-SSP components.
