Starting the TIBCO SPM Dashboard

During installation, TIBCO Universal Installer renames the default service.bat (supplied by Apache Tomcat) in SPM_HOME/spmdashboard/tomcat/bin folder to service-preSPM.bat, and copies a new version of service.bat.

1. Edit SPM_HOME/spmdashboard/tomcat/bin/service.bat to substitute %TIBCO_EMS_HOME_ESC% with appropriate local TIBCO Enterprise Message Service installation path.
   Note: After you substitute, you can use this service.bat to start Apache Tomcat hosting the Service Performance Manager Dashboard application as a Windows Service using service.bat {install | uninstall} on a Windows command prompt. If you install it as a Windows Service, an entry - TIBCO SPM Dashboard appears in the services list (services.msc).
2. To use Enterprise Message Service 8.0.0 or later, edit the file SPM_HOME/spmdashboard/tomcat/bin/setenv.bat (or setenv.sh) and service.bat and change "%EMS_HOME%/lib/jms.jar to %EMS_HOME%/lib/jms-2.0.jar.
   Note: If you are working with a version earlier than 8.0, skip to the next step.
3. Start the TIBCO SPM Dashboard using one of the following methods:
   • Click Start > All Programs > TIBCO > SPM_HOME > TIBCO Service Performance Manager <version> > Start SPM Generic Dashboard.
   • Go to the SPM_HOME/spmdashboard folder and run the following executables:

     startspmdashboard.bat

   Attention: The UI for SPM Dashboard is available using Admin agent.
