To Install the BMI Software

1. Copy the UCE-BMI-*.tgz file to a directory where you want to work.

   This path is referred to as your installation directory throughout this section.

2. Expand the contents of the tar file.

   # tar xPfzv UCE-BMI-*.tgz

   The UCE-BMI-plugin-version-release directory is created.

   This directory contains a ReadMe file and a subdirectory, RPMS, which contains the following packages:

   • Dependent package – sun-uce-api-version-release.platform.rpm

   • Dependent package – sun-uce-api-python-version-release.platform.rpm

   • BMI Server package – sun-uce-bmi-version-release.platform.rpm
