Creating Host Aliases for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM System Components

You must create host aliases because you will identify each component by its alias when you configure BPM.

Procedure

  • On both the primary site and the DR site, create matching aliases for the hosts of the following TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM system components:
    • TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM
    • TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM database server
    • TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM case data store server (if the case data store is hosted in a separate database from the BPM database itself)
    • TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator
    • TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator database server
    • Enterprise Message Service server
    • LDAP server
    • SMTP server (if used)
    • Public load balancer

    Use a method that resolves host name aliases at the network level, such as a local in-datacenter DNS solution or a matching set of entries in the hosts files on both the primary site and the DR site. For example: 

    # TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM - server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx BPM_server_hostname amx-bpm-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM - Database Server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx Oracle_server_hostname amx-bpm-db-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM - BDS Case data store Server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx Oracle_server_hostname amx-bpm-bds-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator - server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx Administrator_server_hostname amx-bpm-admin-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator - Database Server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx Oracle_server_hostname amx-bpm-admin-db-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix Enterprise Message Service server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx EMS_server_hostname amx-bpm-ems-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM - LDAP Server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx LDAP_server_hostname amx-bpm-ldap-host
# TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM - SMTP Server: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx SMTP_server_hostname amx-bpm-smtp-host
# Public load balancer machine: ip hostname alias
xx.xxx.xx.xx Public_load_balancer_hostname amx-bpm-public-load-balancer
