Starting TIBCO Administrator on UNIX

You must start the administration server and TIBCO Hawk agent before starting the Administrator GUI.

Starting the Administration Server and TIBCO Hawk Agent

The administration server is normally started immediately after the initial administration domain is created.

1.

First start the server by typing the following into a command-line prompt:

   % cd TIBCO_ADMIN_DOMAIN_HOME/domain-name/bin

   % tibcoadmin_domain-name

2.

Then start the TIBCO Hawk agent, which performs the TIBCO Administrator monitoring functions, by typing:

   % cd TIBCO_TRA_DOMAIN_HOME/domain-name

   % hawkagent_domain-name

Starting the TIBCO Administrator GUI

1.

Open your web browser and connect to the following URL:

  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 have 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 to get a list of domains, the ports they are using, and the TIBCO software available on that port, and then pick a domain from this list to go to the login screen.

2.

Log in as the domain administrator user. This user was specified using the Domain Utility. That user can then assign other users privileges to log in.
