FRIB driver linac will deliver heavy ion beams with beam energy above 200 MeV/u, and beam power on target up to 400 kW. Commissioning, tuning, and beam power ramping up of the world’s first SRF linac for high-power heavy-ion beams will be challenge, and developments of necessary physics application software tools are very important. In this paper, our major progress and the development plan of physics application software for the FRIB linac within Open XAL frameworks are discussed, which include the FRIB linac online model, MySQL database for physics applications, virtual accelerator application, and several other pilot physics applications. Deploying and initial testing of Open XAL and those pilot applications for FRIB are currently ongoing for a new cryomodule at Michigan State University.
