Basic Configurations

Hawk Domain and Transport

TIBCO Hawk WebConsole can monitor multiple domains configured for different or same transports.

Note 

The monitored domain names must be unique within and across different transport types.

TIBCO Hawk WebConsole can monitor multiple transports at the same time. Each of those transports supports multiple domain configurations.

Domain Transport Configuration File (DomainTransportCfg.xml)

The configuration file used to configure the domains is specified in web.xml under the 'main_servlet' definition.

<init-param>
     <param-name>domain_config_file</param-name>
     <param-value>/DomainTransportCfg.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

This file DomainTransportCfg.xml is available in the HAWK_HOME/webconsole/tomcat/webapps/hawkwebconsole/WEB-INF/conf folder.

It follows the XML schema defined as per DomainTransportCfg.xsd. See the examples in the DomainTransportCfg.xml file for information on how to configure Hawk Domains and their respective transports.You can configure the Hawk domain and their respective transport for the Hawk Web Console. One or more Hawk domains can be managed. You require one DomainTransport section per managed domain. You must uncomment and configure the code for the DomainTransport section for the transport that you want to use and comment all other DomainTransport sections.

For example, the configuration for RV transport domain is as follows:

 

<!--  RV transport domain--> 
<hk:DomainTransport>
    <hk:HawkDomainName>default</hk:HawkDomainName>
    <hk:Transport> 
        <hk:RVTransportCfg>
            <hk:service>7474</hk:service>
            <hk:network></hk:network>
            <hk:daemon>tcp:7474</hk:daemon>
        </hk:RVTransportCfg>   
    </hk:Transport>
    <hk:SecurityPolicy></hk:SecurityPolicy>
</hk:DomainTransport>

Configuring Security for Any Domain

Configure a security policy for each domain independently using the <hk:SecurityPolicy> as shown in the preceding section. For more Information on Security Configuration, refer to TIBCO Hawk Security Model.

Note 

The security policy of a domain is an optional tag. If the <hk:SecurityPolicy> tag is not present in the Domain configuration or is empty, the domain is initialized with no security policy.
