Managing Adapter Nodes

An adapter node is a runtime entity that hosts runtime adapters. You can use the adapteradmin utility to create, start, stop, and verify adapter nodes.

1. Open a command line and navigate to the folder where the adapteradmin utility is located.
   By default, it is located in the TIBCO_HOME\afx\version_number\bin directory.
2. Enter the following command to start the Adapter Administration console:
   adapteradmin
3. An adapter node must exist in an app space. If you have not created an app space, enter the following command to create one:

   adapter[admin]> create -d DomainName appspace AppSpaceName

   where:

   DomainName

         Name of the domain where the app space that contains the adapter node that you want to manage is added.

   AppSpaceName

         Name of app space where the adapter node that you want to manage is added.

4. Enter the following commands to manage adapter nodes:
   • To create an adapter node, enter the following command:

     adapter[admin]> create -d DomainName -a AppSpaceName adapternode AdapterNodeName

   • To start an adapter node, enter the following command:

     adapter[admin]> start -d DomainName -a AppSpaceName adapternode AdapterNodeName

   • To stop an adapter node, enter the following command:

     adapter[admin]> stop -d DomainName -a AppSpaceName adapternode AdapterNodeName

   • To check the status of an adapter node, enter the following command:

     adapter[admin@Domain/MyAppSpace]>show adapternodes

     See Adapter Node State for more details.

     where:

     DomainName

           Name of the domain where the app space is added.

     AppSpaceName

           Name of the app space where the adapter node is added.

     AdapterNodeName

           Name of the adapter node that you want to manage.
