The TIBCO EBX® Configuration Assistant helps with the initial configuration of the EBX® repository. If EBX® does not have a repository installed upon startup and if the automatic installation is not enabled, the configuration assistant is launched automatically.
Before starting the configuration of the repository, make sure that EBX® is correctly deployed on the application server. See Java EE deployment.
The EBX® main configuration file must also be properly configured. See TIBCO EBX® main configuration file.
When launching EBX®, the license key page displays automatically if no valid license key is available, that is, if there is no license key entered in the EBX® main configuration file, or if the current license key has expired.
The license key can be retrieved from the TIBCO eDelivery site (an account is mandatory in order to access eDelivery, please contact https://support.tibco.com to request one).
The license key is available in the TIB_ebx_5.9.17_license_key.pdf file.
The EBX® configuration assistant guides you through the following steps:
Validating the license agreement.
Configuring the repository.
Defining users in the default user and roles directory (if a custom directory is not defined).
Validating the information entered.
Installing the EBX® repository.
In order to proceed with the configuration, you must read and accept the product license agreement.
This page displays some of the properties defined in the EBX® main configuration file. You also define several basic properties of the repository in this step.
Id of the repository ( | Must uniquely identify the repository (in the scope of the enterprise). The identifier is 48 bits (6 bytes) long and is usually represented as 12 hexadecimal digits. This information is used for generating the Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) of entities created in the repository, and also of transactions logged in the history. This identifier acts as the "UUID node", as specified by RFC 4122. |
Repository label | Defines a user-friendly label that indicates the purpose and context of the repository. |
If a custom user and roles directory is not defined in the EBX® main configuration file, the configuration assistant allows to define default users for the default user and roles directory.
An administrator user must be defined. You may optionally create a second user.
Before proceeding with the installation of the repository, you can review the configuration of the repository and the information entered on the 'Configuration Summary' page. If you need to modify information, you can return to the previous pages using the configuration assistant < Back button.
Once you have verified the configuration, click the button Install the repository > to proceed with the installation.
The repository installation is performed using the provided information. When the installation is complete, you are redirected to the repository login page.
