Installing TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in
Installation Media
You can either download the TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in installation package or install the components from a CD.
Installation Registry
The installer maintains an installation registry. The registry location depends on the platform. This section explains where the registry files are located.
On Windows platforms, the installation registry is maintained in the %CommonProgramFiles% folder:
%CommonProgramFiles%\InstallShield\Universal\TIBCO\Gen1\_vpddb\_envInfo.xml

Installation Modes
Install Using GUI Mode
GUI mode performs the installation in an interactive graphical interface. The installer prompts you for values specific to your environment.
To install in GUI mode, open the physical media or download the TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in package. For example, TIB_hkam_<version_num>_win_x86.zip for Microsoft Windows platform.
Double-click the icon named TIBCOUniversalInstaller.exe.
Install Using Console Mode
Console mode allows you to install the software in a non-windows environment. The installer will prompt you for values.
To install from a Microsoft Windows command window, type:
    TIBCOUniversalInstaller -console
When running in console mode you can move through the installation process as described next:
 
Enter Key = Moves forward in the installer
2 = Returns to the previous screen
3 = Cancels the Wizard and exits the installation or uninstallation
4 = Redisplays the current screen
Install in Silent Mode
The following procedure explains how to install a TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in product in silent mode. It installs TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in using default values.
The TIBCOUniversalInstaller-hkam1x_<version>.silent file is packaged in the directory that contains the universal installer. You must edit the file with information for your environment before launching the silent installation. The file includes comments that describe the installation properties you can set.
While you can use the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-hkam1x_<version>.silent file, it is a good practice to copy the file to a different name and edit that file for the silent install.
If errors occur during installation, they will be listed in the installation log file (see the User_Home/.TIBCO directory).

Copy the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-hkam1x_<version>.silent file and rename the copy.

    TIBCOUniversalInstaller.exe -silent
If .silent file is not named TIBCOUniversalInstaller-hkam1x_<version>.silent then the command to call silent installation is TIBCOUniversalInstaller.exe -silent -V responseFile="<pathAndFilename>" where <pathAndFilename> is the absolute directory path and file name to the .silent file.
A line similar to the following is written to the installer log file when installation completes:
... Install, com.tibco.installer.util.TIBCOInstaller, dbg.Debug, Executing Event:::OnEndInstall
