How to install Intel Simics from the CLI?

433 views Asked by At

The documentation states that one can install from the terminal using a ispm bundle (*.ispm). However, the ispm executable reports the following:

error: unknown option '--install-bundle'

When running: ispm --install-bundle /path/simics-6-packages-2021-16-linux64.ispm

The installation directory has been set using ispm config install-dir /path/install as per documentation, and I even tried using the --install-dir flag, but I ended up on the same issue.

Am I missing any other non-documented requirements perhaps?

Please try adding the command "packages"

./ispm packages --install-bundle </path/to/simics-6-packages-2021-16-linux64.ispm>

optionally, consider adding the "--trust-unsigned-packages", "--non-interactive" and "--install-dir"
