1. Create the $IOC_DATA directory for your cpu and iocs  as follows:
1. cd $IOC_DAT
2.  Create the $EPICS_IOCS cpu and ioc boot directories
   1. cd $EPICS_IOCS
   2. mkdir cpu-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit#>  
   3. mkdir  sioc-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit#>
3. Setup cpu directory files
   1. cd cpu-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit#>
   2. Setup relative symbolic links to the common startup script and EPICS version:.
      1. ln -s ../common/st.cmd.linuxRT.cpu               startup.cmd
      2. ln -s ../common/bin/<epics base version>     epicsSpecificRelease
   3. Generate the file kernel-module.cmd. This file load kernels modules and drivers: kernel-modules.cmd
      1. for examples click  here.
4. Setup ioc directory files
   1. cd sioc-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit#>
   1. copy the ioc startup.cmd script from  $EPICS_IOCS/template
      1.  for linuxRT running iocsh:    cp ../template/startup.cmd.linuxRT          startup.cmd
      2. for  linuxRT running cexp:     cp ../template/startup.cmd.linuxRT.cexp  startup.cmd
   2. edit startup.cmd
   1. 1.  replace <ioc>  with your ioc name and for cexp replace <facility>
      2.  change path of the EPICS_IOC_APP in your st,cmd file is in a non-standard location.
   1. cp ../template/screenrc   screenrc
   2. edit screenrc and replace <ioc> with your ioc name.
   3. Setup a relative symbolic link to the TOP of the IOC Application release.
1. ln -s ../../iocTop/<app>/<version> iocSpecificRelease
5. Modify $EPICS_IOCS/screeniocs    – Please note that this is a symbolic link to this CVSed file:
1. check out screeniocs from CVS into your work area
1. cd
2. cd <work>
   cvs co -d epics/iocCommon/All/<facility>   , where facility is Dev,Prod,facet,acctest
1. cd epics/iocCommon/All/<facility>/screeniocs
2. edit screeniocs
   
1. add line for cpu
   format:  cpu-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit #>      <ts>   <ts port #t>   <screen  host>   [ # comment]
2. add line for each ioc
   format:  sioc-<area>-<subsystem prefix><2-digit #>  cpu-<area>-<subsystem-prefix><2-digit #>    <account>   [ # comment]
3. The "comment" field in  screeeniocs  is optional and must be precede but  "#".
2. commit your
changes to
1. changes of screeniocs to the code management system
:   cvs
1. (CVS) 
   1.  cvs commit  -m "added cpu and ioc blah" screeniocs
