Configuring in the Graphical Mode
The graphical mode can be used if you have access to a display with a window manager. This is probably the most user-friendly mode, where you can easily check and update the TIBCO Product and Service Inventory configuration.
To start TIBCO® Configuration Tool in graphical mode, run the following command:
$ cd $TIBCO_HOME/tct/<version>
$ ./TIBCOConfigurationTool
TIBCO Configuration Tool in graphical mode is a standalone application.
- The first pop up window asks where to store a copy of all the configuration. This copy could be used as a backup, and so could be used later to reapply the configuration to TIBCO Product and Service Inventory.
- TIBCO Configuration Tool provides links to configure the messaging and the database. Click the Configure Product and Service Inventory Database link and click Next.
- TIBCO Configuration Tool can be used to configureConfigValues_PSI.xml for database connectivity only for Oracle database. For PostgreSQL database, the ConfigValues_PSI.xml must be configured manually. TIBCO Configuration Tool needs the following information:
- The Oracle database version
- The JDBC driver directory
- The database URL
- The database administrator user name and password
Testing the connection for the database administrator is possible from this wizard screen by clicking Test Connection.
- Click Next. The Create Table Space wizard is shown. This wizard page helps gathering tablespace creation details, if needed. If the "Create TableSpace" toggle is off, then all fields are greyed out except "Tablespace Name".
- After entering the tablespace information, click Next. The Create DB User wizard is shown.
- Click Configure. The confirmation screen is shown. After you click Configure the wizard uses the information to create the tablespace, users, and tables. The confirmation screen shows the tasks to performed by TIBCO Configuration Tool.

- After clicking Next, click Configure.
- Click Close to close the messaging configuration wizard
