and use aptitude or synaptic to search for "openscada".

Configuration

Before any of the drivers from the "org.openscada.drivers.common" package can be started a configuration must be created. For each driver the configuration file is called "exporter.xml" and located in the appropriate driver directory e.g. "/etc/openscada/drivers/<DRIVER>/exporter.xml". So for the "exec" driver instance this would be "/etc/openscada/drivers/exec/exporter.xml".

The configuration is a custom thing and there is no such thing as a "default". However there are XML schema files installed by the packages which aid in creating the configuration manually and in addition each driver instance has a sample files named "exporter.sample.xml" which can be used as a start.

Running

openSCADA is started using upstart. Check out directory "/etc/init" for configurations that contain "openscada" in the name.


For example the "exec" driver can be started using "sudo start openscada.exec".

After a driver instance was started the OSTC application can be used to connect to it. The connection URI is defined in the "exporter.xml" file of each driver instance. And endpoint address in the file of "0.0.0.0" names the "any" interface which binds to all interfaces on the local (driver) host. So in order to connect an IP address of the host computer (where the driver is running) must be used instead of "0.0.0.0" in order to connect.
