Debian as Operating System

Siveillance Control requires Debian (components as technically released) as system requirement/operating system. Debian is available free of charge and a Debian ISO image is included in Siemens scope.

In case that the customer provides Debian for installation or updates on behalf and does not want to use the included Debian ISO image, we recommend installation with internet access. The customer can only do this if he takes full responsibility for the consequences under contract law. You can download debian-11.x.0-amd64-netinst.iso from https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/. The installation steps might be slightly different.

Before making your way to the customer, you have to check the following requirements to ensure a trouble-free installation.

  1. Check if all hardware and software components listed on the order are available.
  1. Check if the minimum requirements for the hardware were fulfilled during the planning phase.
  1. Make sure that the data connection at the installation location is sufficient for installing Linux.
  1. If the data connection is not sufficient, prepare the offline installation by copying the following files on a data medium:
