Setting Up the Governance Agent for TIBCO Administrator

If you are using ActiveMatrix Policy Director with the TIBCO Administrator product, you have to explicitly set up the Governance for TIBCO BusinessWorks Plugin. This plugin notifies the ActiveMatrix Policy Director distribution engine when an application is undeployed and allows ActiveMatrix Policy Director to perform the required cleanup. You perform this setup after you have completed running TIBCO Configuration Tool to set up Policy Director.

The process you follow depends on whether TIBCO Administrator and TIBCO BusinessWorks are running on the same machine. Active

TIBCO Administrator and TIBCO BusinessWorks on the Same Machine

Follow these steps:
  1. Go to the TRA_HOME/bin directory
  2. Run the following command:
    wrap --propFile PDBWPlugin.tra -domain domainName

The Governance Plugin is added to TIBCO Administrator.

Note: The wrap command takes longer to end on Linux due to internal thread dependencies.

Standalone TIBCO Administrator

If TIBCO Administrator is installed on a machine that does not run TIBCO BuinessWorks, find a machine on which the Policy Director Governance Agent for TIBCO BusinessWorks is already installed, follow these steps:
  1. Copy the following files from the Policy Director machine to the corresponding directories on the TIBCO Administrator machine:
    TRA_HOME/lib/bwplugin.jar
    TRA_HOME/bin/PDBWPlugin.tra
    TRA_HOME/bin/jmsconfig.properties
    
  2. In the PDBWPlugin.tra file, change the value for TIBCO_HOME if it is different on the TIBCO Administrator machine.
  3. In the jmsconfig.properties file, check whether localhost is being used and replace it with the actual host name.
  4. Go to the TRA_HOME/bin directory.
  5. Run the following command:
    wrap --propFile PDBWPlugin.tra -domain domainName

The Governance Plugin is added to TIBCO Administrator.
