Starting the Engine and Sending Events

For a detailed explanation of the above format see "Starting a TIBCO BusinessEvents Engine at the Command Line" in TIBCO BusinessEvents Administration.

The format for starting an engine at the command-line is as follows:

BE_HOME/bin/be-engine [-h] [--propFile 
			 startup property file] [--propVar 
			 varName=value][-p 
			 custom property file] [-n 
			 engine name] [-d] -c 
			 CDD file -u 
			 processing unit ID  EAR file
Note: The _annotations.idx file requires write permissions for successful engine startup. By default, this file is created at BE_HOME/bin. If you do not have write permissions to this directory, configure the path for the _annotations.idx file using the be.engine.annotations.idx property in the be-engine.tra file.
