Configuring System Parameters on UNIX or Linux Platforms

If you are installing on a Linux or UNIX platform, you must configure the platform for running ActiveMatrix BPM.

You must:
  • install 3 additional packages. You can use yum to install the following packages:
    • glibc.i686
    • libstdc++.so.5
    • compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-72. el7.x86_64
  • set the maximum number of open files/file descriptors, as described below.

Procedure

  • Set the maximum number of open files/file descriptors.

    The maximum number of open files/file descriptors that a user can open is controlled by the operating system. However, the default threshold on Linux systems is typically too low and has to be increased.

    TIBCO recommend that you set the system-wide, hard limit to a value of at least 10000, on each machine that will be part of the ActiveMatrix BPM system.
