Chapter 8 Setting Deployment Options : Edit Application Configuration Dialog

Edit Application Configuration Dialog
Fields can be edited if this dialog is invoked from the Configuration Builder pane. If invoked from the Deployed Configuration pane, the fields are read only.
The following tabs are available:
General Tab
Application Archive
Provides information about the enterprise archive file including the package name, version, description, creation date and owner.
Upload New EAR File
Allows you to replace the current enterprise archive file with an updated version.
Application Parameters
Allows you to specify the application name, associated deployment name, a simple description, and contact name for the application. It also allows you to specify the maximum number of revisions to keep for this application in the revision history.
Advanced Tab
The Reset to Defaults button resets all global variables to default settings as set in the enterprise archive file.
Global Variables
Displays the global variables set in the enterprise archive file for this application.
The following global variables are predefined by default:
RemoteRvDaemon — Used by the system to identify the TIBCO Rendezvous routing daemon. See TIBCO Rendezvous Administration for details about specifying the routing daemon name.
RvaHost — Used by the system to identify the computer on which the TIBCO Rendezvous agent runs. See TIBCO Rendezvous Administration for details about specifying the rva parameters.
RvaPort — Used by the system to identify the TIBCO Rendezvous agent TCP port where the agent listens for client connection requests. See TIBCO Rendezvous Administration for details about specifying the rva parameters. Default is to 7501.
TIBHawkDaemon — Used by the system to identify the TIBCO Hawk daemon parameter. See the TIBCO Hawk Installation and Configuration manual for details about this parameter. Default is the value that was set during domain creation (7474 by default).
TIBHawkNetwork — Used by the system to identify the TIBCO Hawk network parameter. See the TIBCO Hawk Installation and Configuration manual for details about this parameter. Default is an empty string.
TIBHawkService — Used by the system to identify the TIBCO service parameter. See the TIBCO Hawk Installation and Configuration manual for details about this parameter. Default is 7474.
TIBCO BusinessWorks and Adapters Deployment Repository Instance
When TIBCO Administrator deploys an application, it creates an application repository which contains information about the application configuration. You can view and change certain aspects of the application repository.
In Transport you select the transport the administration server uses to communicate with the client application. You can change this setting only if your administration domain uses TIBCO Rendezvous as the transport. Administration domains that use TIBCO Enterprise Message Service server always use the local choice.
Choose local, rv (TIBCO Rendezvous) or HTTP, (or HTTPS if the administration domain has been set up to use HTTPS). The default is set when creating a domain.
If you change the transport from local to another value, the application repository will not be pushed to the target machine, and the application will communicate with the administration server at runtime.
The local choice is supported only if the target machines have installed TIBCO Runtime Agent 5.3 or later.
When you choose local, you can set the message encoding for the application. See MessageEncoding above for more information.
For more information about these choices, see the TIBCO Administrator Server Configuration Guide.
If your administration domain is not initially enabled for HTTPS, and there are deployed applications in the domain that use HTTP to connect to the application repository, the service instances will not restart after they are shut down. In this case, you must redeploy each service instance after changing the transport to HTTPS.
Preview URL
If you have selected, rv or http in the Transport field, click the preview URL to display the URL that the application uses to access the application repository.
