Installation Environment

An installation environment isolates product installations. A product installed into an installation environment does not access components in other installation environments.

An installation environment is the top-level installation directory for TIBCO products. An installation environment consists of the following properties:

  • Directory - Identifies the name of the directory where the product is installed. This directory is referred to as TIBCO_HOME.
  • Name - Identifies the installation environment. On Microsoft Windows, the name is a component of the path to the product shortcut in the Windows Start > All Programs menu.

You must install into an existing TIBCO_HOME where TIBCO BusinessEvents is already installed.
