Custom Installation - New Installation

For TIBCO iProcess Engine Custom Installation, complete the following steps:

1. Select the Custom radio button in the Setup Type dialog, and then click the Next button. The Upgrade or New Install dialog appears, as shown in Upgrade or New Install Dialog - New Installation.

Figure 141: Upgrade or New Install Dialog - New Installation
2. Select the New Installation radio button and specify the iProcess node name you want to use for the new installation in the Upgrade Or New Install dialog, and check both the Install Files and Install Schema checkboxes to install iProcess Engine files and schema tables simultaneously.
— iProcess Files-install Owner can install files.
— iProcess Schema-install Owner can install schema tables.

For detailed information about configuration options in this dialog, see Upgrade or New Install.

Note:

You must install iProcess Engine files and schema tables for a new installation, but you can choose to install them separately. In this situation, you must choose to install iProcess Engine schema tables first.

To install iProcess Engine schema tables separately, perform the 3, 6, 7, and 12 steps.

To install iProcess Engine files separately, perform the 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 steps.

3. Click the Next button. The Choose Destination Location dialog appears, as shown in Choose Destination Location Dialog - New Installation. Click the Browse... button to specify a Destination Folder where you want to install iProcess Engine.
Note:

The Destination Folder is referred to as SWDIR.

The length of the SWDIR full pathname must not exceed 64 characters.

If you are installing iProcess Engine on a computer that is part of a Windows cluster, SWDIR must be on a cluster storage device that is accessible to all nodes in the cluster.

Here, SWDIR is the iProcess system directory where the TIBCO iProcess Engine is installed.

If you are using an Oracle database with iProcess Engine, skip this step.

If you are using a SQL Server database with iProcess Engine, the SQL/ODBC Details dialog appears, as shown in SQL/ODBC Details Dialog. For detailed information about configuration options in this dialog, see SQL/ODBC Details.

Figure 145: SQL/ODBC Details Dialog

  1. Select the Choose An Existing ODBC Data Source or Enter A New ODBC Data Source radio button in the dialog.
    Note:

    The supported ODBC Data Source is 64-bit. If you select Choose An Existing ODBC Data Source, the system displays only a 64-bit ODBC datasource.

  2. Check or uncheck the You Have DBA Privileges (To Create A Database And Users) checkbox.
  3. Click the Next button.

If you entered a new ODBC Data Source name, the ODBC Source Not Found dialog appears and the following prompt is displayed in it: 

ODBC Source does not exist. Do you want to create it?

Click the Yes button to open the Database Details dialog. Click the No button to return to the SQL/ODBC Details dialog, and choose a different ODBC Data Source name.

7. (For Install Schema Only) Configure the database that iProcess Engine connects to in the Database Details dialog. For detailed information about configuration options in this dialog, see Database Details.

If you are using an Oracle database with iProcess Engine, the configuration options are listed in Configuration Options in the Database Details Dialog box - Oracle. The Database Details dialog is shown in The Database Dialog for Configuring an Oracle Database.

Note: If you are using Oracle 12c, you must specify the owner name and username of the iProcess Engine database with the prefix, c##. For example, c##ipepro and c##ipeuser.
— Click the Next button. The installer now tries to connect to the Oracle database using your specified settings and performs a number of checks against your Oracle configuration. See Configuration Options in the Database Details Dialog box - Oracle for detailed information. The Select Tablesizes Profile dialog appears, as shown in Select Tablesizes Profile Dialog.

Figure 147: Select Tablesizes Profile Dialog

If you selected the Configure iProcess Objects Server checkbox in Select Components to Configure Dialog, The TIBCO iProcess Objects - Server Configuration Utility dialog appears, as shown in TIBCO iProcess Objects - Server Configuration Utility Dialog.

Figure 151: TIBCO iProcess Objects - Server Configuration Utility Dialog
— Set your desired configuration parameters for iProcess Objects Server. See TIBCO iProcess Objects Programmer’s Guide or TIBCO iProcess Objects Server Administrator’s Guide for more information about the available parameters.
— If you are installing in a Microsoft Windows Cluster, you must specify that iProcess Objects Server uses a static port (using the TCP tab).
11. After configuring the iProcess Object Server, the Activation dialog is displayed.

To activate the license, enter the URL of your TIBCO Activation Service instance in the TIBCO Activation Service instance URL field.

Figure 152: TIBCO Activation Service instance URL

Note:
  • This step is optional and can be set up later in post-installation task.
  • In Slave Server installation, if the URL for your TIBCO Activation Service instance is set in the Master Server, then the input is populated with the set URL and can be edited.

  • If the value populated in input is modified to an empty input data and iProcess Engine is installed, then the installer does not delete the existing TIBCO Activation Service instance URL that is set on the node.
12. To proceed further, click NEXT.

The licensee details are displayed.
