Installation Overview

Installation Overview
TIBCO ActiveMatrix Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters (Adapter IT) allows you to upload and deploy TIBCO Adapter configurations designed in TIBCO Designer and packaged in an Enterprise Application Archive (EAR) to the TIBCO ActiveMatrix runtime environment using the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator GUI. Once deployed, you can manage and monitor the TIBCO Adapter like any other ActiveMatrix application.
You install the Administrator component on a machine on which the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator server has already been installed. You install the Runtime Host component on one or more machines on which a TIBCO Adapter product has been installed.
* If you use this product with an Administrator server that has been upgraded from version 3.1.5 to version 3.2.0, auto deployment is off by default. Before you deploy applications that were created from EAR files in an upgraded environment, Select Infrastructure > Nodes > configuration to turn on turn auto deployment on from the Administrator GUI.
 
Single-machine Setup and Multi-machine Setup
During initial testing, you might install all components on one machine.
In a production scenario, use separate machines for the Administrator component and the runtime component, as follows:
You can add machines that use the Machine 2 configuration if you want to add additional adapters.
 
Performing Installation and Configuration of the Administration Component
You install and configure the ActiveMatrix Administrator server component and the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters component, as follows.
1.
2.
Install the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters Administration component. Select the same TIBCO_HOME location that you selected in Step 1.
3.
If you performed a fresh installation of TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid or TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Bus Administrator server, run TIBCO Configuration Tool and configure the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid or TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Bus Administrator server.
4.
* If you perform a single machine setup, TIBCO Configuration Tool displays a list of application templates to deploy on the default node at the end of Administrator server configuration. Do not choose TIBCO Adapter Implementation Type App Template. Because the TIBCO Hawk Agent workflow is not run at this time, deployment of this component results in a startup failure with a CONFIGURE_FAILED message
 
Performing Installation and Configuration of the Runtime Component
You install the runtime component of TIBCO Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters as follows.
1.
2.
3.
Install the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters Runtime Host. Select the TIBCO_HOME location that you selected in Step 1.
The TIBCO_HOME location must be the same for all components on each machine, but can be different on different machines.
4.
Invoke TIBCO Configuration Tool and configure the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid or TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Bus TIBCO Host component.
If you install the Runtime Host component on a machine on which a TIBCO Host has already been configured, you can skip this step but you must restart the TIBCO Host after you install and configure the Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters Administration component.
5.
You can now upload an EAR file using the TIBCO Administrator GUI, and deploy to the default TIBCO Node. See TIBCO ActiveMatrix Implementation Type for TIBCO Adapters Administration.
