Administration Tutorial

The administration framework supports application deployment either through the bwadmin command line utility or the Admin UI. The scripts provided can be used to set up runtime entities that are useful for testing purposes. This tutorial walks you through running scripts and navigating runtime entities in the Admin UI.

The administration framework contains:

• The Admin UI hosted on TIBCO^® Enterprise Administrator
• A powerful back-end bwagent designed to scale across large numbers of actual or virtual machines to manage large scale deployment.
• A simple, flexible, and easy-to-use bwadmin command line utility.

This section shows how to:

• Create runtime entities (Domains, AppSpaces, and AppNodes) and upload and deploy archive files using scripts.
• Start and stop applications using the Admin UI.
• Navigate runtime entities using the Admin UI.

For more information on runtime entities, see Administration Concepts in theTIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Concepts guide.
