3.2.4 Configuration
Files
When the Acceleration software loads, it is configured based on settings in the
configuration files (dh895xcc_qa_dev0.conf and dh895xcc_qa_dev1.conf). Both
configuration files are placed in the /etc directory.
The files are processed when the system boots. If changes are made to the
configuration file, the Acceleration software must be stopped and restarted for the
changes to take effect.
The Intel Communications Chipset 8925/8950Series Software package includes
multiple types of platform-specific configuration files. Depending on your installation
options and SKU, a valid configuration file will be copied to the /etc directory for you. If
your system has more than one Intel Communications Chipset 89xx Series, it is
recommended that you verify that the correct configuration files were copied.
Refer to the Programmer's Guide for your platform for additional information on the
configuration files.
3.3 Starting/Stopping the Acceleration Software
When the Acceleration software is installed, a script file titled qat_service is installed in
the /etc/init.d directory.
The script file can be used to start and stop the Acceleration software. To start the
software, issue the following commands:
# Service qat_service start
Note: If the service qat_service start command fails, verify the following:
-Software is installed.
-Acceleration software is already running.
