Generating Application Configuration

In TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid, applications are configured from the Administrator UI and all configurations are stored in the Administrator database. ActiveMatrix Service Grid - Container Edition does not have the Administrator database. All configurations are stored in a YAML file.

YAML file is required to build the application Docker image. The YAML file is generated from the Application Configurator UI or the DAA2Config command-line tool. When migrating your application running in TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid 3.x to ActiveMatrix Service Grid - Container Edition, you can use the Application Extractor to generate the YAML file with all runtime configuration. See the following topics for more information:

• Generating Application Configuration YAML File from Application Configurator
• Generating Application Configuration YAML File from DAA2Config Command-Line Tool
• To generate the YAML file for applications that you want to migrate from TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid 3.x to ActiveMatrix Service Grid - Container Edition, see the "Migrating Applications from ActiveMatrix Service Grid 3.x to ActiveMatrix Service Grid - Container Edition" topic in the TIBCO ActiveMatrix® Service Grid - Container Edition Quick Start.
