- Using TIBCO Designer, create an Enterprise Archive (EAR) file, which contains information about the adapter instances and processes you wish to deploy.
- Using TIBCO Administrator Enterprise Edition, upload the EAR, then deploy the adapter on the machine(s) of your choice. You can set runtime options before deployment.
- Using TIBCO Administrator, start and stop the adapter.
- Monitor the adapter using the built-in monitoring tools provided by TIBCO Administrator.
If you are using the adapter standalone, use TIBCO Administrator Repository Edition to manage adapter projects.
- Using TIBCO Designer, export the project to a repository server.
- Create an adapter properties file and in it provide the location of the project repository and adapter instance. You can also set runtime options in the properties file.
- Invoke the runtime adapter against the property file on the command line.
- Monitor the adapter using the TIBCO Hawk™ microagents, which allow you to get information about the adapter and manage it by setting certain parameters during run-time.
