   <project path="installation/src" id="6577f94805b39d81fb941aca" version="2023.3" label="ESDQ_Geti_Test_Module" esb_install="true"/>
   

7. Grant executable permission to edgesoftware:

   chmod +x ./edgesoftware

8. Install the Intel® ESDQ and Intel® Geti™ AI platform test module on the target system:

   ./edgesoftware install 

9. When prompted, enter the Product Key. You can enter the Product Key mentioned in the email from Intel confirming your download (or the Product Key you copied in step 3).
10. When the installation is complete, you will see the “Installation of package complete” message and the installation status for each module.

    

     

NOTE: Make sure that the Intel® Geti™ AI platform test module is installed successfully before you start using the Intel® ESDQ. If the test module fails to install, run the following command:
./edgesoftware update <Failed Module ID(s)>

11. Once the installation is complete, reboot the system:

    sudo reboot

Copy Projects and Data

1. Navigate to the Intel® ESDQ installation folder:

   cd <esdq installation folder> 

2. Copy the projects and data to the modules/geti/projects directory in the Intel® ESDQ folder: 

Run the Application

Run Intel® ESDQ for Intel® Geti™ AI platform test module via esdq CLI. 

1. Go to the Intel® ESDQ installation folder:

   cd <esdq installation folder> 

2. Check the Intel® ESDQ version: 

   esdq --version

3. Ensure the release version matches the version you downloaded.
4. View the available command line options for Intel® ESDQ:  

   esdq --help

   Example output:
    

   

    

5. List the available test modules:

   esdq module list

6. Run Intel® ESDQ test execution. This command will run the test modules listed in the package. 

   esdq run

   NOTE: When prompted for the superuser permission, provide the sudo password.

7. This command will execute the installed test modules and generate a report once the execution is completed. You will find the report in the /reports folder: 

   cd <esdq installation folder>/reports

   
   Here’s an example: 
    

   

    

8. View report.html on a web browser and send the report to Intel to continue with the Devkit qualification process. 

Summary and Next Steps

With the Intel® ESDQ CLI tool, you were able to run an Intel-provided test suite on the target system, with the goal of testing the Intel® Geti™ AI platform. Intel® ESDQ generated a complete test report in HTML format, along with detailed logs packaged as a zip file.

As the next step, you can email the result package (Example: esdqReport_2021-05-05_07:39:19.zip).

Troubleshooting

‘esdq’ command not found

If the Linux shell does not find the esdq command, follow these troubleshooting steps:

1. Check if the esdq command is installed in the ~/.local/bin directory:

   ls ~/.local/bin/esdq

   Ensure that the command exists in the specified directory.
2. If the esdq command is in ~/.local/bin, verify if ~/.local/bin is included in the $PATH environment variable. Update the $PATH variable by adding ~/.local/bin:

   export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH

   
   You can add this line to your shell profile file (for example, ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.zshrc) to make the change permanent for future sessions.
3. After updating the $PATH, rerun the esdq command:

   esdq

   If the command is properly installed and the $PATH is set correctly, the shell should recognize and execute the command. 

If you’re unable to resolve your issues, contact the Support Forum.
