Executing Admin Client Utility from Platform Server

You can run Admin Client Utility by executing a Platform Server request on any computer that supports TIBCO MFT Platform Server.

You can call Admin Client Utility through TIBCO MFT Platform Server through the following two ways:
  • By executing a TIBCO MFT Platform Server command. In this method, when a file is made available, TIBCO MFT Platform Server can send a remote command to the target TIBCO MFT Platform Server where TIBCO MFT Command Center Admin Client Utility is running. This is the most flexible method of calling Admin Client Utility. TIBCO MFT Platform Server on any computer can execute this call to any version of TIBCO MFT Platform Server that is running Admin Client Utility.
  • By running a TIBCO MFT Platform Server file transfer to a remote computer. You can specify a post processing action (PPA) either locally or remotely that executes the Admin Client Utility command. The advantage of using this method is that the process of transferring the file and executing Admin Client Utility is a one-step process. Admin Client Utility can be executed either locally or remotely. But CFAdmin (the name of the Admin Client Utility batch job) must run on either the local or remote TIBCO MFT Platform Server computer. You cannot execute the utility on a different computer using this methodology.
