Running TIBCO iProcess Administration Console

Starting the Administration Console

To start the Administration Console, perform the following steps:

1. Start Apache Tomcat in one of the following ways based on your operating system:
Note: If you want to run the Administration Console on multiple nodes, perform this step on each node at the same time to ensure proper synchronization between all nodes.
— On UNIX, run the following command:
ipac start
— On Windows, from the control panel navigate to Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Services and Applications>Services

Then, start the iProcess <ipe_node> AdminConsole service, where <ipe_node> is the name of the machine on which iProcess Engine is installed.
2. In a web browser, go to the URL that you defined in the $SWDIR/tomcat/webapps/ipac/config/ipac.properties.json file. See Host Name for more information.
Tip: TIBCO iProcess Administration Console is designed to function even when iProcess Engine is shut down, and therefore must be always running on the machines where it is installed.

It is a good practice to enable starting the Administration Console automatically when the machine starts. On a UNIX machine, you can do this by adding the Administration Console to the startup script. On Windows, you can do this by setting the Startup Type for the Administration Console service to Automatic.
