TIBCO BusinessConnect Remote can be installed by a regular (non-root) user and super-user (root). Different users can install the same product at different locations.
Product dependencies at install time are resolved at user level through the installation registry maintained at user's home directory. See Installation Registry for more information.
A graphic environment such as CDE or X Windows is required to run the installer in GUI mode. It is not required for a console installation.
TIBCO Software provides a compressed file that you need to unpack before you can access the installation file. One way to unpack the file is to use the tar command at the Linux command line:
After unpacking the software and accepting the license agreement, you can choose to perform a typical install or custom install.
By default, the installer installs the software to this directory: tibco/bcremote
.
The Linux installation package is named TIB_bcremote-suite_5.0.0_linux24gl22_x86.bin
TIBCO BusinessConnect Remote provides the following installation options:
GUI mode allows you to input values in panels. Type the following in a terminal window:
Console mode allows you to install the software in a non-windows environment. The installer prompts you for values. Type the following in a terminal window:
When running in console mode, you can move through the installation process as described next:
Enter Key = Performs default action; typically moves forward in the installer. 2 = Goes back to previous screen 3 = Cancels the Wizard and exits the installation or uninstallation 4 = Redisplays the current screen
Silent mode allows you to install the software without prompts using default values. Type the following in a terminal window:
You can generate a response file during installation which you can later use to invoke the installer with the selected values as default values (GUI mode) or as selected values (silent mode).
To install and generate a response file, type the following at the command prompt:
% ./TIB_bcremote-suite_5.0.0_linux24gl22_x86.bin -options-record /directoryPath
/responseFile
![]() |
The response file does not record selections at the component level. It does record all other selections, for example, which products you plan to install.
|
You can use a previously generated response file for installation. For non-silent modes, the response file determines the defaults that are presented. For silent mode, the response file determines what will be installed.
To install using a response file, type the following at the command prompt:
You can combine the different available options. For example, to install in silent mode using a response file, use:
To install using console mode and generate a response file, use:
% ./TIB_bcremote-suite_5.0.0_linux24gl22_x86.bin -is:javaconsole
-console -options-record
