• Probe: to debug database records. • Alarm handler ALH The current Beijing Electron Position Collider (BEPC) is going to be upgraded to reach a higher energy as 1.89 GeV and a luminosity of 1.0E33cm -2 s -1 . A second storage ring will be installed in the same tunnel of BEPC. The control system of BEPCII will be constructed based on EPICS. During the past two years a basic prototype has been set up, including 2 Solaris workstations, a Linux PC and MVME2431 CPU boards. EPICS 3.13.4 has been installed and upgraded to 3.13.8. Upon this scalable prototype a distributed computing environment is under construction, to support the commissioning software development and kinds of subsystem development. The efforts of setting up the EPICS based prototype will be introduced in this paper. The methods of constructing a distributed host environment for BEPCII control system will be discussed.
