Prerequisites for Importing

  1. Install Apache ANT (1.9.9+) and ensure the PATH is correct. It is recommended that you use ANT that is shipped with ActiveMatrix (found under: TIBCO_HOME\amx\<version>\bin).
  2. Make sure TIBCO_HOME is set correctly in build.properties file.

    Export process populates TIBCO_HOME value of TIBCO_HOME that (source) ActiveMatrix Administrator was using. However, that might not match when user moves the archive to a different machine. If the archive is moved from the original location, the value of TIBCO_HOME needs to be updated. Otherwise, import does not run.

  3. Provide information about target ActiveMatrix Administrator correctly in remote_props.properties. Set target Administrator in Running state before running import.

    The Export process populates the connectivity information of the current ActiveMatrix Administrator into this file. Before running import, make sure the information provided in this file is correct.

    You also need to make sure that target ActiveMatrix Administrator is running at same release level.

Note:
  • For the ‘create’ target, you only need the target ActiveMatrix Administrator to be in the ‘Running’ state. All other nodes and hosts need not be in the running sate. For ‘start’ and ‘clean’ targets, other Nodes and Hosts must be in the ‘Running’ state too.
  • The property password is always empty in this file. You must provide the password by updating this file. You can provide either clear text password or obfuscated password. To obfuscate password, you can use the CLI script “obfuscate_build.xml” provided in the samples directory (that is, ant -f obfuscate_build.xml).
