Adapter Microagents

Each adapter has three microagents, with different capabilities and names. The same microagent follows different naming conventions, depending on how an adapter is started: from TIBCO Business Studio, or from TIBCO Administrator.

The following three microagents are predefined:
  • Standard Microagent: predefined in TIBCO Adapter SDK. You can use the microagent to perform queries on all running adapters, regardless of their class or application.
    • Naming in TIBCO Business Studio: COM.TIBCO.ADAPTER.adadb.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
    • Naming in TIBCO Administrator: COM.TIBCO.ADAPTER.adadb.domainName.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
  • Class Microagent: predefined in TIBCO Adapter SDK. You can use the microagent to perform queries on one class of the adapter.
    • Naming in TIBCO Business Studio: COM.TIBCO.adadb.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
    • Naming in TIBCO Administrator: COM.TIBCO.ADAPTER.adadb.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
    Note: When an adapter configuration is started from TIBCO Business Studio, two class microagents with different number suffixes, like 0 and 1, are displayed in the main Hawk Display window. However, the class microagent with the smaller number suffix is invalid.
  • Custom Microagent: predefined in TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for Database. You can use the microagent to perform the adapter specific queries.
    • Naming in TIBCO Business Studio: COM.TIBCO.adadb.custom.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
    • Naming in TIBCO Administrator: COM.TIBCO.adb.custom.%%Deployment%%.%%InstanceId%%
