Installing the ActiveSpaces Node as a Windows Service

Prerequisites

Perform the following tasks:
  1. Before using TIBCO ActiveSpaces processes as Windows services, ensure that both Java and the TIBCO FTL Windows package and the TIBCO ActiveSpaces Windows package are installed on a local disk of the host computer (not on a mapped network drive).
  2. Complete the steps listed in Preparing for Installation.
  3. Complete the steps listed in Installing TIBCO FTL Server as a Windows Service.
  4. Complete the steps listed in Creating the ActiveSpaces Grid.

Procedure

  1. Use the following commands to install the four nodes (two per copyset): 
    TIBCO_HOME\as\<as_version>\bin\prunsrv.exe //IS/tibdgnode_default_cs01_1 
--DisplayName="TIBCO ActiveSpaces Node cs_01.n_1 (_default)" --Install=TIBCO_HOME\as\<as_version>\bin\prunsrv.exe

    TIBCO_HOME\as\<as_version>\bin\prunsrv.exe //IS/tibdgnode_default_cs02_2

    Tip: If you plan to copy the code snippet, remember to remove line breaks for all the sample commands that are associated with prunsrv.exe.
  2. On Windows, open the Windows Services panel and manually start each of the nodes.
    The logs are written to C:\activespacesdata\logs and the process data is written to C:\activespacesdata\_default\process_name.
