Installing Using the Plug-in

To install using the plug-in, perform the following steps:

    Procedure
  1. Download the product - TIB_psc-ebx_plugin_ver.zip and unzip the archive file. For example, if the product is unarchived at the /home then the directory structure is /home/psc-ebx/2.0.0. The /home/psc-ebx/2.0.0 directory location is called as EBX_HOME and PSC_HOME.

  2. Configure the PostgreSQL database. For more information, see Configuring the PostgreSQL Database for PSC-EBX.

  3. Configure TIBCO EMS. This is required if the records have to be published on the JMS topics. For more information, see Setting Up TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™.

  4. Configure the Tomcat Application Server. For more information, see Configuring the Tomcat Application Server.

  5. Update the artifactsFolder and copy the EnvironmentFolder value in $PSC_HOME/dev-artifacts.properties. The value of artifactsFolder is absolute. It must point to the $PSC_HOME/data/artifacts directory. The value of copyEnvironmentFolder must be relative to the Tomcat bin directory. This must point to the copyEnv directory, which is present in the psc-mdm.war file. So the relative path is /webapps/psc-mdm/copyEnv.

  6. Update the addonDamaDrivePathPrefix in dev-artifacts.properties file inside $PSC_HOME. For example, addonDamaDrivePathPrefix=C:/EBX_Installations/PSC_EBX_Installations/PSC_EBX_ver._buildnumber/psc-ebx/ver/common/images.

  7. Start the Tomcat Application Server and follow the process for Configuring TIBCO® Product and Service Catalog powered by TIBCO EBX®.
