TIBCO Rendezvous® 8.8.0

# Post-Installation Instructions

Procedure

| 1. | The initial library list must contain the Rendezvous library (`TIBRVLIB` is the default library name). Edit all relevant job descriptions to include it.

| 2. | Rendezvous software requires multi-threading. Edit all relevant job descriptions to enable multiple threads.

Tip | The example job description `TIBRVLIB/TIBRV` illustrates items 1 and 2.

| 3. | If your IBM i system is configured with a fully-qualified domain name, ensure that the host table entry for your system contains the full name of the computer. For example, if your domain name is `mycompany.com`, and the machine name is `mymachine`, then put `mymachine.mycompany.com` in the host table.

| 4. | For Java programs, set the `CLASSPATH` environment variable to include `/usr/tibco/tibrv/<version>/lib/tibrvj.jar`.

| 5. | To run Rendezvous programs using `qsh`, you must first set the environment variable `QIBM_MULTI_THREADED` to the value `Y` (before starting `qsh`).

Tip | To set the values of items 4 and 5 automatically, create a `CL` program similar to this example, and set the `INLPGM` parameter in the user profile to run it automatically when the user logs in.
        PGM               /* start it */
                          /* For Java with qsh, set these vars */
        ADDENVVAR  ENVVAR(QIBM_MULTI_THREADED) VALUE(Y)
        ADDENVVAR  ENVVAR(CLASSPATH) +
                   VALUE(’/usr/tibco/tibrv/libtibrvj.jar’)
Whether you set the variables manually or automatically, their values persists until logout.

| 6. | IBM imposes limitations on multi-threaded programs. Remember that all Rendezvous programs are inherently multi-threaded.

You must run multithreaded programs either in batch or interactive batch subsystems—not in the interactive subsystem. When submitting jobs using `SBMJOB`, set the `ALWMLTTHD` parameter to `(*YES)`.

You cannot run multi-threaded programs in the interactive environment. In other words, you cannot use `CALL` from a terminal to start a program that uses Rendezvous.

Tip | Error messages stating that `pthread_create` failed indicate that you have not set `QIBM_MULTI_THREADED`, or you have used the `CALL` command to start a Rendezvous program.
