Specify an Installation Environment

The Environment Type dialog is displayed.

A TIBCO installation environment is used for software installations and consists of a Name and Directory. Products installed into different installation environments do not share components; therefore you can keep product installations completely isolated from each other.

Procedure

If this is the first time that you are installing a TIBCO product using the Universal Installer, you must create an installation environment by specifying the Name and Directory:
- Directory: the root directory for TIBCO software, individual products will use sub-directories of this.
- Name: to easily identify your environment by, for example 'User Acceptance' or 'Procurement Department'.
If you have previously installed a TIBCO product using the Universal Installer, you can either:
- Install into a previously-created installation environment (Select the Use an existing TIBCO_HOME radio option and select the environment from the drop-down list).
- Create another installation environment to keep the product installation separate (Select the Create a new TIBCO_HOME radio option. Browse to the directory where product needs to be installed and provide a unique environment name.).
