Configuring TIBCO Hawk to Use the Microagent

To configure the microagent in your TIBCO Hawk installation, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. In the hawkagent.cfg file, uncomment the -hma_plugin_dir property and ensure that the property has the value CONFIG_FOLDER/plugin. This option specifies the directory that is searched when loading the microagent plug-ins. For more information, see the TIBCO Hawk Installation and Configuration guide.
  2. Copy the hawkftl.hma and ftlserverconfig.yaml files from TIBCO_HOME/hawk/<version>/plugin/ftl to CONFIG_FOLDER/plugin directory.
  3. Edit the ftlserverconfig.yaml file and specify the url, username and password of the FTL server. If the servers are in fault tolerance mode, you can specify multiple server details. Specify server details of the secondary servers by uncommenting the url, username and password fields.
  4. In the hawkftl.hma file verify that the file has correct trace log configurations. If you are configuring an SSL connection to the TIBCO FTL server, set the additional SSL arguments in the hawkftl.hma file. For more information on configuration parameters, see Configuration Parameters.
  5. Restart the TIBCO Hawk Agent.
