Starting Nodes

To start a TIBCO BusinessEvents® Extreme node in which to deploy an application, complete these steps:

  1. Log into a command line shell.

  2. Export SW_HOME into the environment. SW_HOME must be set to TIBCO_HOME/be-x/<version>. For example:

    export SW_HOME=/opt/tibco/be-x/1.0.1
  3. Update the PATH variable to include TIBCO_HOME/be-x/<version>/distrib/kabira/bin. For example:

    export PATH=/opt/tibco/be-x/1.0.1/distrib/kabira/bin:$PATH
  4. On each machine that will run a TIBCO BusinessEvents® Extreme node, use the administrator client to install a node.

    Example 3.1. Installing a node

    administrator install node
    
     Installing application tibco/be-x on node appliance...
    
    	Starting node appliance ...
    		Installing Registry ...
    		Updating Registry ...
    		Installing Components ...
    		Starting Components ...
    		Waiting for security services to start ...
    		Loading Security Policy ...
    	Startup complete
    
    	Node appliance is configured to use PRODUCTION executables
    	Node appliance shared memory size is 512Mb
    	Node appliance path: /home/guest/nodes/appliance
    	Node appliance host: appliance
    	
    	System Coordinator Host: All Interfaces
    	System Coordinator Port: 31799
    	
    	Installing components for application tibco/be-x
    
    	Administration Port: 31799
    	Service Name: "None"
    	Node Name: "appliance"


    This initializes the node.

  5. After the node is installed, start the node using administrator start node. The start node command requires the administration port displayed when a node is installed.

    Example 3.2. Starting a node

    administrator adminport=31799 start node
    	Waiting for application to start .
    	Components started
    	Loading configurations
    	Auditing security configuration
    	Host: localhost
    	Administration Port: 31799
    	Service Name: "None"
    	Node Name: "appliance"

    The node is now ready for the FraudDetection application to be deployed.
