Installing the Media on a Linux Computer Server

On a machine dedicated to calculation operations, install the CATSYSM_TP product in the desired directory (example: /usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation).

Copy the SystemsSimulationConfig.json file, located in /usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation /linux_a64/config, in the root of the installation directory (/usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation).

The SystemsSimulationConfig.json file is the key element for the server configuration. You can modify it through several configuration points.

Modify the following parameter according to your needs:

Parameter

Description

publicAddress

Set this parameter with the network name of your machine.

Example: "publicAddress": "myMachine.3ds.com",

certificate and privateKey

For a secure connection for all the users, indicate the certificate and the SSL private key provided by your IT.

network

Network configuration elements used to validate that the machine's ports are open and accessible. This configuration is optional.

Example: A default configuration is proposed: The port 8080 is used for the socket connection The port 2097 to initialize the webSocket connections of each client For each client a port will be allocated in the range 2098 to 2198.

The configuration is now complete.

{
"hypervisorSettingsVersion":2,
"publicAddress": "myMachine.3ds",
"certificate": "/usr/SSL/myMachine.3ds.com.cer",
"privateKey": "/usr/SSL/myMachine.3ds.com.key",
"network": {
	"socketPort": 8080,
	"webSocketPort": 2097,
	"webSocketRange": "2098-2198"
},
"processProvisioning": {
  "strategy": "on-premise",
  "pools": [
     {
       "names": ["systemsSimulationCS"],
       "launcher": {
          "executable": "./linux_a64/code/command/SystemsSimulationStartSession.sh <EK_POOL> <EK_IDENTIFIER>"
       },
       "criterion": "byIdentifier",
       "timeoutInSeconds": 1200
      }]
    }
}

Open a Windows command in administrator mode and move to the installation directory using the cd cd /usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation command:

Install a C Compiler.

Note: The application requires the prior installation of a C compiler. The supported compilers are Microsoft Visual Studio or GCC. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are supported.

Define the variables:

set SID_SIA_USE_COMPILER=GCC32 (or GCC64)
set SID_SIA_COMPILER_PATH=/usr/bin/gcc

Enter the following command to start the server: start /usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation/linux_a64/code/bin/EKHypervisor start "/usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation /SystemsSimulationConfig.json" -listenOnWebSocket"

The console will display the following message:

Using HypervisorSettings file ‘/usr/DassaultSystemes/SystemsSimulation /SystemsSimulationConfig.json’
Listening on socket port '8080'
Listening on websocket port '2097'
