See the readme file for the supported versions.
 
The installer prompts you to specify the location for Eclipse on your system. The installer will not allow you to complete the installation if a valid Eclipse installation is not found. To run the TIBCO Object Service Broker UI, you must install the supported versions of JRE and Eclipse.
If the TIBCO Runtime Agent is installed on the machine where you are installing the TIBCO Object Service Broker UI, do not install the JRE that is bundled with the product.
Installer Account
Microsoft Windows – You must have administrator privileges for the machine on which TIBCO Object Service Broker is installed. If you do not have administrator privileges, the installer exits. You must then log out of the system and log in as a user with the required privileges, or request your system administrator to assign the privileges to your account.
Solaris – TIBCO Object Service Broker can be installed by a regular (non-root) user and super-user (root). Different users can install the same product at different locations.
Installation Files
The installation files for the TIBCO Object Service Broker UI for this release are the following:
TIB_osbui_6.0.0_win.zip Windows
TIB_osbui_6.0.0_sol.zip Solaris
Installing the Software
Install the software as follows:
On Windows, run the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.exe file.
On Solaris, run t3he TIBCOUniversalInstaller-sol-sparc.bin file.
Apply a mode as described in Installing the Software (for Windows) or Installing the Software (for Solaris). Bear in mind the following exception in the silent mode:
A .silent file is available, which requires customization as described in the embedded directions. After customization, to start a silent installation, run the .exe or .cmd file with the -silent flag. With the customized.silent file, you need not create a response file for the installer for the OSB Base or for the installer for the SDK Clients.
After starting the installer and accepting the license agreement, you are prompted to specify the Eclipse installation directory (if not detected by the installer).
If you have already installed a previous version of the OSB UI, be sure to define a new TIBCO_HOME for the new installation.
Postinstallation
TIBCO Plug-ins File
During installation, you are prompted to specify your Eclipse installation directory. The installer then automatically creates a TIBCO plug-ins file. To apply another Eclipse installation without rerunning the TIBCO Object Service Broker UI installer, do the following before running that UI:
1.
In your Eclipse installation directory (referred to here as ECLIPSE_HOME), create a links subdirectory (if it does not already exist).
2.
In the ECLIPSE_HOME/links directory created in Step 1, create a text file named TIBCOplugins.link.
3.
Insert the following line in the TIBCOplugins.link file:
path=TIBCO_HOME/components
where TIBCO_HOME is the top level installation directory for TIBCO products where the TIBCO Object Service Broker UI was installed.
Uninstalling the Software
