Installing and Configuring TIBCO Hawk (Optional)

For displaying machine-level metrics in MM Console, TIBCO Hawk is required. If you skip this step, you just won’t see machine level metrics for your deployed cluster.

Full instructions for this task are provided in the section Installing and Configuring TIBCO Hawk for Machine Level Metrics in TIBCO BusinessEvents Administration. Below are some basic points for a default setup, for the benefit of experienced Hawk users.

Procedure

  1. Configure a Hawk domain. Use the same Hawk domain name and Rendezvous transport for all monitored engines and for the emonitor application.
  2. Import the BE_HOME/mm/project/emonitor project into your workspace and edit the MM.cdd. If you copy files into the workspace, remember to copy the MM.cdd file to the above location. In the mm-class agent properties list, add the following property to specify the Hawk domain:
       tibco.clientVar.Domain=TIBCO Hawk Domain
  3. In the file BE_HOME\mm\bin\be-mm.tra, set the tibco.env.HAWK_HOME property and the tibco.env.RV_HOME to point to the TIBCO Hawk and TIBCO Rendezvous installation root directories.

Result

You have done the prerequisite setup for using MM. Next you will complete the main task in getting ready to deploy the project with MM: configuring the site topology for the deployed cluster.
