Installing TIBCO MDM (Typical Installation)

In the typical installation, the installer presents panels which you can select choices about the product location, and so on.

1. Run the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.exe application. The TIBCO Universal Installer Welcome window is displayed.
2. Review the information and click Next. The license agreement is displayed.
3. Review the terms of the license agreement. If you agree with its terms, accept the license agreement and click Next.
4. In the Installation Profile Selection window, do one of the following:
   1. Select Create a new TIBCO_HOME option. A TIBCO installation environment is used for software installations and consists of a Name and Directory. Products installed into different installation environments do not share components; therefore you can keep product installations completely isolated from each other.
   • Directory: browse to the directory where product needs to be installed and provide a unique environment name. Ensure that you have write permission to this directory.
   • Name: specify the environment name that is easy to identify your environment. For example, 'User Acceptance' or 'Procurement Department'.
   1. If you have previously installed a TIBCO product using the Universal Installer, you can select Use an existing TIBCO_HOME. By default, the installer detects the directory for your TIBCO_HOME and displays the path. For example, on Windows, the default installation directory is c:\tibco.
      Note: If you had installed the application earlier, the directory cannot be modified. For a new installation, the directory can be changed.
   Click Next.
5. In the Installation Profile Selection window, by default, the Typical installation profile is selected.
   1. If you check the Customize Installation check box, a list of components is enabled (Executable Image and Common Configuration).
   2. Select your preferred options and click Next.
6. In the MDM Configurator Tomcat Settings window, the default port values are displayed. You can change the default port values. Click Next.
   Warning: The specified port values must not be in use by another application. If you do not specify configuration information, Configurator does not start and you need to perform manual configuration. For more information on Configurator, refer to Configurator.
7. In the TIBCO Patterns Settings window, the default user interface port value (required for Patterns GUI tomcat server) and Patterns server port value (required for Patterns binary) are displayed. You can change the default port values.
   1. Select Install as a Windows Service check box if you want to install the Patterns server binary as a service.
   Click Next.
8. In the TIBCO MDM Common Config Location window, select the common configuration location and click Next.
   If you have selected the standard common configuration option, the default $MQ_HOME\common directory location is displayed. You can retain the location or change it by clicking Browse.
   Tip: The best practice is to assign a location separate from MQ_HOME. TIBCO MDM creates files in this directory and it is better to keep it separate from MQ_HOME. In a clustered environment, this directory should be shared for all instances.

   Note: If you do not specify the common configuration location, Configurator does not start and you need to perform the manual configuration. For information, refer to Manually Configuring TIBCO MDM.
9. The HIBERNATE LGPL License Agreement window is displayed. If you agree with its terms, accept the license agreement, and click Next.
10. The LGPL Assembly Download window is displayed. Select one of the following options:
    • Download HIBERNATE assembly from TIBCO: if you are downloading the LGPL assembly for the first time, select this option. The HIBERNATE assembly is downloaded in the same folder as the installer. All the third party software which are used in the application and their licenses are downloaded.
    • Provide the location for the assembly previously downloaded from TIBCO: if you have previously downloaded the LGPL assembly, specify the folder in which you have downloaded the hibernate assembly. Browse to the directory where the assembly is previously downloaded and saved.
    Note: If the LGPL Assembly is already downloaded, the LGPL Assembly Download window is not displayed.

    Click Next.
11. The XMLC LGPL License Agreement window is displayed. If you agree with its terms, accept the license agreement, and click Next.
12. Select the Download XMLC assembly from TIBCO option. The assembly gets downloaded in the same folder as the installer. Click Next.
13. In the Pre-Install Summary window, review a list of the components that are going to be installed and the installation environment details and click Next to begin the installation process.
14. In the Post-Install Summary window, review a list of the components that are installed and the installation environment details. Click Finish to exit the wizard.
