on-premise installation Vivado can't find aws::make_ipi

Question

Hi,  
   I am setting up on-prim development tools for AWS FPGA development. I installed Centos7.6 and downloaded the AWS HDK Kit. Followed all the steps of sourcing the hdk_setup.sh and setting up CL_DIR variable. However Vivado is not able to find aws::make_ipi. I get the following error.  
  
aws::make_ipi  
invalid command name "aws::make_ipi"  
  
My first thought was that it might have to do something with some of the Vivado features I skipped installing (like SDK). So I reinstalled Vivado System version with all the features and tried again. Still same thing.  
   I have done this many times on AWS FPGA Developer AMI, but doing on premise for the first time.   
   Also, the AWS HDK Kit has been updated since I last successfully compiled.  
  
Is there any pre-requisite or setting I am missing? or is it something chanaged with the new verseion of AWS HDK Kit.  
  
Thanks

Answer

I found that I was missing the step to add the hlx_setup.tcl entry to Vivado_init.tcl. After completing this step, it works.

This step enables the aws specific commands in the flow.
