Configuring Applications

The SCE platform can be configured to run with different Service Control applications by installing the
appropriate file. All SCE platform application files are pqi files, that is, the filename must end with the
pqi extension.
Once a specific Service Control application is installed it can be configured by applying a configuration
file. The configuration file is application-specific, and is produced by application-specific means, not
covered in this documentation. Configuration files have no specific extension.
These configuration changes are automatically saved to the start-up configuration after execution, and
Note
therefore do not appear when the running configuration is displayed (more running-config command).
These configurations cannot be manipulated by changing the system/config.txt file
Note

Managing Application Files

Use the following commands to install, uninstall, and upgrade an application. You can use the show pqi
file info command before installing or upgrading an application to display the options that are available
when installing the pqi file. These options can then be specified in the install or upgrade command as
needed.
The documentation of the application will tell the user whether the application is stand-alone (in which
case install should be used), or an upgrade to an existing application that is assumed to be installed
already (in this case upgrade should be used).
You should always run the pqi uninstall command before installing a new pqi file. This prevents old
files from accumulating on the disk.
