Chapter 2 Starting TIBCO Administrator : Starting TIBCO Administrator on Microsoft Windows

Starting TIBCO Administrator on Microsoft Windows
You must start the administration server and TIBCO Hawk agent before starting the TIBCO Administrator GUI.
Starting the Administration Server and TIBCO Hawk Agent
The administration server is normally started immediately after the initial administration domain is created. Two Microsoft Windows services must be running for the server to be available. The services are installed by the installation program and set to start automatically. To start the services the first time, navigate to the Services dialog, find the administration server for your domain and click the Start button. Repeat for the TIBCO Hawk agent service.
Alternatively, to start on the command line:
1.
   % cd TIBCO_HOME/administrator/domain/domain/bin
   % tibcoadmin_domain-name.exe
2.
   % cd TIBCO_HOME/tra/domain/domain
   % hawkagent_domain-name.exe
If any value is modified in the hawkagent_domain.tra or tibcoadmin_domain-name.tra file, then you must update the corresponding service. For hawkagent:
   % cd TIBCO_HOME/tra/domain/domain-name
   % hawkagent_domain-name.exe –-update
For tibco_domain-name.tra:
   % cd TIBCO_HOME/administrator/domain/domain-name/bin
   % tibcoadmin_domain-name.exe –-update
Starting the TIBCO Administrator GUI
You can launch the TIBCO Administrator GUI by entering the appropriate URL into your browser, or you can use the Start menu.
Starting from a Web Browser
1.
 
  http://host-name:port/administrator/servlet/tibco_administrator
host-name is the name of the machine on which the administration server has been installed. If this is the same machine you are currently on, you can use localhost as the machine name.
port is 8080 by default. If you have used the TIBCO Domain Utility to assign a different port, use that port number instead. If you created multiple domains on one machine, the port is incremented by 10 for each domain. For example, the second domain will use 8090.
You can enter http://host-name:8080. This displays a list of domains, the port each domain is using, and the TIBCO software available on that port. You can pick a domain from this list to go to the login screen.
