     152== Installing 4.8 Kernel on IG EPC Resource ==
     153 
     154After an Ubuntu 16 Raw PC was reserved in the GPO IG rack, the following procedure was followed to create the ePC setup:
     155{{{
     156
     157# Note the Ubuntu 16.04.1l image delivers a GNU/Linux 4.4.0-34-generic
     158sudo apt-get update
     159sudo apt-get -y upgrade
     160
     161# Note the next step requests a conflicting grub change. The procedure kept existing grub
     162sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
     163sudo reboot
     164
     165# Note system comes up with Kernel 4.4.0-78-generic
     166sudo apt-get install --install-recommends xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04
     167sudo reboot
     168
     169# Note system comes up with Kernel 4.8.0-53-generic
     170}}}
     171
     172Next step is optional, disk was resized to make sure there is all possible disk space available:
     173
     174{{{
     175sudo apt-get install gparted -y
     176# Note resize /dev/sda1 from 16G to 19G and create partition /dev/sda2 from from "unallocated" 900G type=ext4 and named extra
     177
     178# Next add new partition to files system files
     179sudo mkdir /extra
     180sudo vi /etc/fstab
     181
     182# Make file system part of persistent definition by inserting the following to /etc/fstab
     183/dev/sda2 /extra ext4 defaults 0 0
     184
     185# Mount newly added file system and change ownership
     186sudo mount /extra
     187sudo chown -R lnevers:ch--OpenFlowTuto /extra/
     188}}}
     189# Enable GTP (GPRS Tunneling Protocol)
     190sudo modprobe gtp
     191}}}
     192
     193== Installing OAI Software ==
     194
     195Assuming you have completed the 4.8 Kernel installation, we proceed to install the !OpenAirInterface software as specified in the [https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/GetSources OAI Repository].  Follow the instructions on the [https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/GetSources OAI Repository] page.

     197The wiki OAI Repository has a wiki page that captures [https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/HowToConnectCOTSUEwithOAIeNBNew How to Connect OAI ePC with COTS User Equipment]. Following are installation steps followed:
     198
     199{{{
     200# Note some prerequisites installation and configured
     201sudo apt-get install i7z  cpufrequtils -y
     202sudo vi /etc/default/cpufrequtils
     203
     204# insert the following in the file
     205GOVERNOR="performance"
     206sudo update-rc.d ondemand disable
     207sudo reboot
     208}}}
     209

     214git config --global user.name "Luisa Nevers"
     215git config --global user.email "luisa.nevers@raytheon.com"

     217echo -n | openssl s_client -showcerts -connect gitlab.eurecom.fr:443 2>/dev/null | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' | sudo tee -a /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
     218git config --global http.sslverify false
     219}}}
     220
     221Put in place links for additional disk space:

     240
     241# Building ePC:
     242cd ~/openair-cn/SCRIPTS
     243./build_mme -i
     244# sudo apt-get install mysql-server --reinstall -y
