Editing a TIBCO Host

GUI

  1. Navigate to Hosts list.
  2. Select a host. The host details are displayed in the General tab.
  3. Edit the contact, description, and the Management URL. If the updated Management URL is not reachable, a warning message is shown.
  4. Click the Configuration, Environments, Substitution Variables, Resource Instances, Diagnostics tabs to edit other information.
  5. Click Save.
    Note: SourceHost, Bind IP, and Install as Windows Service are editable only when the Host is in a Not Installed state.

CLI

The Admin CLI edit action is used to modify details of a TIBCO Host instance. The data.xml looks identical to that shown in the previous section for add action.

Here are specific constraints on individual fields:

  • name — The name of a TIBCO Host cannot be changed.
  • managementUrl — For a TIBCO Host in "Not Installed" state, the new value is used. For a TIBCO Host in any other state (Running, Stopped, and so on), the new value is only stored in TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator database and not applied to the runtime TIBCO Host instance. If the updated Management URL is not reachable, a warning message is shown.
  • bindIP — The value cannot be changed except for a TIBCO Host in "Not Installed" state.
  • secure — Value must be "false" for a TIBCO Host in "Not Installed" state. Otherwise, value must match the enablement of JMX security for the TIBCO Host.
  • windowsService — The value cannot be changed except for a TIBCO Host in "Not Installed" state.
    Note: SourceHost, BindIP, and windowsService are editable only when the Host is in a "Not Installed" state. For all other states, the validation is done from the CLI.
