Preface : Typographical Conventions

Typographical Conventions
The following typographical conventions are used in this manual.
Many TIBCO products must be installed within the same home directory. This directory is referenced in documentation as TIBCO_HOME. The value of TIBCO_HOME depends on the operating system. For example, on Windows systems, the default value is C:\tibco.
Other TIBCO products are installed into an installation environment. Incompatible products and multiple instances of the same product are installed into different installation environments. The directory into which such products are installed is referenced in documentation as ENV_HOME. The value of ENV_HOME depends on the operating system. For example, on Windows systems the default value is C:\tibco.
CONTAINER_HOME is the directory where you install a web container. In this release, the following web containers are supported: Apache Tomcat, JBoss, and IBM WebSphere.
TOMCAT_HOME is the directory where the Apache Tomcat server is installed. For example, if the Apache Tomcat server is installed at C:/apache-tomcat-6.0.16 on Windows systems, the value of TOMCAT_HOME is C:/apache-tomcat-6.0.16
JBOSS_HOME is the directory where the JBoss server is installed. For example, if the JBoss server is installed at C:/JBoss on Windows systems, the value of JBOSS_HOME is C:/JBoss
WEBSPHERE_HOME is the directory where the IBM WebSphere server is installed. For example, if the IBM WebSphere server is installed at C:/websphere on Windows systems, the value of WEBSPHERE_HOME is C:/websphere
