Engineering Build Commands

The Host Manager provides commands to simplify the process of applying and reverting an Engineering Build in Enterprises with a large number of TIBCOHost Instances.

An Engineering Build, or "EB", is an interim build consisting of one or more defect fixes, intended to be used on a product release which has been made available (GA) to all customers. The purpose of an Engineering Build could be:

  1. to diagnose or identify the source of the problem in a particular release; or
  2. to confirm whether a certain solution for the customer's problem works as expected, without, or prior to, providing the solution as part of a general release.

Engineering Builds are usually provided to customers to be used in test environment, and typically, depending on the issue in question, may have to be applied individually to many or all the Nodes in the Enterprise.
