1.1 Major Installation Steps
Following are the major installation steps:
1. Before installing the HMP Software, make sure that the system meets the hardware and
software “System Requirements” as described the HMP Software Release Guide.
2. To install the software, you must have local administrative privileges. Contact your network
administrator to set up administrative privileges as required.
3. Uninstall any existing Intel
4. Obtain an HMP Software license. You can do this before or after you install the HMP
Software. A verification license supplied with the software will allow you to run the
verification demo to confirm that you have installed the HMP Software properly. However, its
features are limited and you may want to obtain another license. Refer to Section 1.2, “HMP
Licenses”, on page 7 for more information. Complete information and procedures for
obtaining and working with licenses is provided in the Intel NetStructure Host Media
Processing Release 1.5 for Linux Administration Guide.
5. Install the HMP Release 1.5 software. Refer to Section 2.3, “Installing the HMP Software”, on
page 10.
6. Activate an HMP Software license. This is considered a configuration activity and can be done
immediately after installing the software or later if you manually run
Section 2.4, “Configuring the System (Activating a License)”, on page 11.
7. Start the HMP services. If necessary, use the
Note: The system does not need to be rebooted after installing and configuring the software.
However, you must log out and log back in so the environment changes take effect.
8. Optionally run the verification demo to verify proper installation of the HMP Software. Refer
to Section 2.5, “Running the Verification Demo”, on page 15.

config.sh. Refer to

1.2 HMP Licenses
Before you use the HMP Software, you must obtain a license file containing HMP license data. An
HMP license is a file containing authorizations for a combination of call control and media
processing channels. You can obtain a license file either before or after you install the HMP
Software, but you need to obtain a license file before you can proceed with using the HMP
Software.
HMP Release 1.5 for Linux Software Installation Guide — August 2005 7
Installation Overview
Once you have installed the HMP Software and downloaded a license file1 to your computer, you
must activate the license on the target system using the License Manager. The License Manager
offers both a menu interface and a command line interface (CLI). The Intel NetStructure Host
Media Processing Release 1.5 for Linux Licensing Manager Administration Guide describes how
to obtain and use license files, and the various tasks you can perform with the License Manager.
You can try out the HMP Software with a verification, evaluation, or trial license before you
purchase a permanent, production license from Intel. If a license file is lost or damaged, you can
obtain an emergency replacement for it. Table 1 shows the types of licenses available for use with
HMP Software.

Note that the HMP software has three install scripts:
• One in the redistributable-runtime directory, which installs runtime components (no header
files)
• One in the sdk directory, which installs header files for application development
• One at the top level which installs both runtime components as well as header files (run this
one to be able to compile your application)
The name of the install script in each level is
install.sh.
