Revision as of 09:20, 2 September 2008
The AlphaCom software is uploaded and installed by software packages in AlphaWeb. A software package is a compressed file with files to update on the target.
Some AlphaCom software packages will depend on the Board Support Package which includes the linux kernel, linux libraries etc. The main version (i.e the linux kernel) of the Board Support Package is only upgradable through a FLASH image process. However a Board Support Package can be patched with a new library etc.

Software Packages
Up until and including package AlphaSys 10.43 all AMC software releated files, AlphaWeb, rmd, m100d and system patches was included in one package file. From AlphaSys 10.44 the files are splitted into several packages. A improved packages compability system is also added from package AlphaSys 10.44
Package Files
Package Name (file prefix) | First Version (Date) | Current Version (Date) | Description |
---|---|---|---|
AlphaSystem (alpha_sys) | 10.00 (2006-06-01) | 10.42 (2008-04-17) | All AMC releated software and AlphaWeb |
AlphaSupport (alpha_support) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | Linux system files, libraries, webserver etc. (Board Support Package patch) |
AlphaDaemons (alpha_daemons) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | Other AlphaCom Daemons - rmd, m100d |
AlphaBilling (alpha_billing) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | 01.00 (2008-xx-xx) | Billing Software, absd, Billing Web etc |
Package Dependencies
Each package will have a dependency on the installed Board Support Package on the target, and in some cases also from the previously installed AlphaSys version. From AlphaSys version 10.44 these dependencies will be stored inside the packages, and AlphaWeb will test dependencies before allowing to install the package on the target.
AlphaSys Package Dependency table
Package Version Range | AlphaSys Dependency | Board Support Dependency |
---|---|---|
10.00 - 10.43 | 10.00 | 02.03 |
10.44 - xx.xx | 10.43 | 02.03 |
NOTE! It will not be possible to install package from AlphaSys 10.44 and above on systems with package 10.42 and below. You will need install 10.43 before continuing to higher versions. A mechanism for blocking installation of package>=10.44 on package<=10.42 is implemented, but it is not possible to make a good message to the user since these package already are made. The user will get an 'corrupted package' message.
AlphaSupport Package Dependency table
Support Package Version | Board Support Dependency |
---|---|
02.07* | 02.06 |
03.02* | 03.01 |
04.01* | 04.00 |
05.01* | 05.00 |
AlphaDemons Package Dependency table
Package Version Range | AlphaSys Dependency | Board Support Dependency |
---|---|---|

AlphaBilling Package Dependency table
Package Version Range | AlphaSys Dependency | Board Support Dependency |

AlphaWeb Package Compability Test
When selecting an uploaded file in AlphaWeb the package content will be verified, and compability issues with the installed software will be checked. If compability issues the install button in AlphaWeb will be removed.
A package info table will be presented comparing the selected and installed software. The row Board Support (AlphaSys) Compability presents both the required AlphaSys package, and Board Support package. If there is some compablity issues the data cells for the row will be colored red, and a warning text will be presented bellow the table. In addition a 'Tooltip' text can be presented when moving the cursor over the data cell in the table. This text will fetched from the package info file within the package. This allows a customized text for each package generated (See figure below).
