CMS (Connection Manager Server) must be installed in the internal network behind the firewall. CMS works with CMA (Connection Manager Agent), which is typically found in DMZ installations where firewall rules do not allow connections to be initiated from the DMZ to the internal network. The CMS installation is not supported by the Silent Installer.
Prerequisites
Ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
You must be the system administrator of the operating system to complete the CMS installation.
A Java JDK must have been installed, if you have not already set the
JAVA_HOME variable as required for the
TIBCO MFT Command Center installation, set this variable along with the PATH statement. See
Configuring Java on Windows or UNIX for more information.
Note: If you do not install CMS when installing
TIBCO MFT Command Center and install CMS separately, you have to first start the automated installation of CMS. See
Starting CMS Automated Installation for more information of how to start the automated installation of CMS.
Procedure
This step Installs the CMS in the current running directory.
CMS Step 1 Install CMS Server
CMS will be installed in directory:
C:\MFT730CMS\cmsserver
............
This step defines the ports that CMS uses in the environment.
By default, CMS uses HTTPS port 48443 and shutdown port 48005.
CMS Step 2 Configure CMS Server ports
CMS will use the following Server Ports:
: HTTPS Port....................: 48443
: Shutdown Port.................: 48005
Note: The default values will work in most environments.
To Accept these ports hit <Enter>. Otherwise type N and press <ENTER>:[y]
Testing Server ports:
Testing https port 48443: Successful!
Testing shutdown port 48005: Successful!
Server Port tests successful. Press <Enter> to Continue
This step sets up the default ports to be used for the communication between CMS and CMA.
CMS Step 3 Configure Connection Manager Agent (CMA)
Now we will define the Connection Manager Agents (CMA).
Enter the CMA Host Name or IP Address.........[]:10.97.142.89
CMA will use the following Command and Data ports.
CMA Command IP Port...............: 48000
CMA Data IP Port..................: 48001
Note: The default values will work in most environments.
To Accept these ports ............:[y]
This step configures the password used by
TIBCO MFT Command Center to configure CMS.
By default, the password is set to
changeit. You can change the password later through
TIBCO MFT Command Center if needed.
CMS Step 4 Configure the password used by Command Center to configure CMS.
Command Center requires a password to configure CMS
Enter the password used by Command Center to configure CMS.....[changeit]:
Default password:[changeit] will be used
Enter 'y' to confirm, Enter 'n' to re-enter password...[y]
This step starts the CMS application server and tests the connection.
CMS will attempt to connect to CMA every 30 seconds until a connection is successful.
CMS Step 5 Starting the CMS Server
The Connection Manager Server is starting
Testing Connection Manager Server connection:
Try 0 to contact to the application server
Try 1 to contact to the application server
Connection Manager test successful
CMS will connect to the CMA agent every 30 seconds until a connection is
successful: (10.97.142.89:48000 )
This step displays some final instructions to help you log in and configure CMS through
TIBCO MFT Command Center.
CMS Step 6 CMS Installation Complete
Now you can install the Connection Manager Agent(CMA) on host 10.97.142.89
The CMA is distributed with the MFT Internet Server. CMA can be installed and
configured during the MFT Internet Server installation in the DMZ. During the
MFT Internet Server CMA installation you will be prompted for the following
information:
: When prompted for "CMA Command IP Port" enter: 48000
: When prompted for "CMA Data IP Port" enter: 48001
Most of these configuration options can be changed through the Command Center
admin pages. To configure this CMA through Command Center, do the following:
: Management ==> Connection Manager ==> Add Connection Manager Node
: Set a unique name for this CM Node
: Set the IP Address to the IP Address or Host Name of this machine
: Set the IP Port to HTTPS Port 48443
: Set the Password in the Server credentials to the password you just entered
Connection Manager Server installation completed successfully!
Installation details are in the cmsinstall.log file.
Note: For more information about configuring the connection, see
TIBCO Managed File Transfer Command Center User 's Guide.
