If you are upgrading from version 3.0.0, and you use Decision Manager, you must perform some steps before and after installing BusinessEvents.Backing store schema changed in 3.0.1. See Updating an Existing Backing Store Database Schema in TIBCO BusinessEvents User’s Guide for instructions to update the schema.Task A Back up Configuration FilesThe installer overwrites configuration files for RMS and Decision Manager. Before running the installer, backup these configuration files.BE_HOME/rms/bin/be-rms.traBE_HOME/DecisionManager/config/bui-config.traBE_HOME/DecisionManager/DecisionManager.iniWhere BE_HOME is the BusinessEvents installation directory. By default the installation directory on Windows is C:\tibco\be\3.0Task B Back up Project DirectoriesExisting RMS and decision projects remain untouched during the update process, but, as with all valuable data, it is recommended to keep backups.The format of the data files used to track Worklist items has changed in version 3.0.1. These changes are due to newly added Worklist features and additional information associated with each commitment request.As a result, earlier versions of these data files will not work with the current version of Decision Manager.The current version of Decision Manager adds additional configuration options to allow you to customize the location of the data files used to track Worklist items in the future. (See Changes in The RMS Engine Properties File).After checking out a decision table created in BusinessEvents version 3.0 or earlier, you cannot immediately export the decision table.First open the decision table in the Decision Manager editor. This action converts the decision table to the current format.Configuration Changes in Decision Manager and RMS: Ensure you have updated your configuration to account for the following changes.

Failure to include these new resources in the access configuration file could result in the following error message:For an example of an access configuration file (including these new resources), see the following config directories:BE_HOME/rms/examples/CreditCardApplication/configBE_HOME/rms/examples/AirlineFlightSystem/config
java.property.rms.projects.baselocation RMS now supports multiple projects. You can keep all of your RMS projects in a single projects directory. This new property define the path to the projects directory.Either move RMS projects to this location, or update the property to point to a different location.Note Single-project mode is still supported. See TIBCO BusinessEvents Decision Manager for configuration details. To support large decision tables, the amount of RAM allocated for the heap has increased from 256MB to 1024MB. java.property.rms.project.workflow.config.file This new property defines the location of the workflow configuration file. The concept of a decision project workflow is new in this release. As mentioned in After Installing—Check and Update Properties Files and All UNIX Installations—Check and Update Properties Files, set the value of this property to your actual hostname. The value as shipped is as follows: This new property enables you to configure where to store the database that maintains all project Worklist information. The default location is BE_HOME/rms/bdb. When RMS is configured to support multiple projects, the authentication configuration file (which defines users, passwords, and role memberships for RMS) applies to all projects managed by RMS. The value is interpreted differently depending on whether you use multi-project or single project mode:
● In multi-project mode, the configuration setting that defines where the authentication file is located is defined relative to the baselocation property.
● In single project mode, the path is defined relative to the project directory.An additional parameter has been provided to enable extension of the classpath used to find JAR files containing custom Java functions.In order for Decision Manager to handle very large decision projects, the RAM allocated to the application has increased as follows:
