Step 1: Installing the Adapter Different business processes have to connect to different enterprise applications. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks therefore does not include adapters in its base package. Instead, you install the adapter you need separately and add it to the TIBCO administration domain during installation. Adapter installation therefore consists of these steps: 1. Install TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. As part of the installation, specify the name of the TIBCO administration domain and specify the administrative user and password for the administration domain. You must establish the TIBCO administration domain and it must be running and accessible before you install the adapter. A TIBCO administration domain is a set of hardware and software resources. The administration domain is set up to include one or more machines. See TIBCO Administration Domain. 2. Install the adapter. During installation, specify the (already existing) TIBCO administration domain and the administrative user and password. After installation, a palette for that adapter becomes available from TIBCO Designer the next time you start it.
