Configuration Console Overview

When you create an application, the enterprise archive file you import has values defined for global variables. The process engines in the archive have configuration options set as well. When you deploy the application, you can use the options set in the archive, or change options in TIBCO Administrator.

The Configuration console consists of two panes, Configuration Builder and Deployed Configuration. Each pane contains applications, service configurations, and service instances as shown in the next diagram.

The Configuration Builder pane on the left allows you to deploy or update applications and to revert a deployment, that is, choose an earlier deployment configuration if there was one. You can deploy the same application multiple times, for example, to try out different machine configurations. However, only one deployment configuration can be running at any time. If you later wish to return to a previous deployment configuration, you can do so by choosing Revert.

You can also view the deployment history, the current deployment if there is one, and completely undeploy the application. See Undeploying a Deployed Application for a detailed discussion.

If you have installed new TIBCO software on a machine that is running process engines, you can upgrade them to use the new software by clicking Upgrade. See Upgrading an Application for more information.

When you select an application, service or service instance in the Configuration Builder panel, the displayed dialog allows you to change parameters for the deployment. When you select an application, service or service instance in the Deployed Configuration panel, the displayed dialog is read-only, providing a description of the properties.
