  1. Launch top level system settings configuration menu and configure:
    petalinux-config
    1. Select Linux Components Selection ---> submenu.
    2. Select PLM.
    3. Enter your settings.
    4. Exit the menu and save the change.
  2. Build the PLM when building the project:
    petalinux-build
  3. Build the PLM only:
    petalinux-build -c plm

The PLM ELF file is installed as plm.elf for Versal adaptive SoC in images/linux inside the project root directory.
