Creating BusinessWorks Components with 5.x Distributions

This component will perform the following tasks:
  • Add a virtual machine to TIBCO Domain.
  • Start TIBCO Hawk® Agent.
  • Publish one or more BusinessWorks projects. This task is optional.

If you do not upload the BusinessWorks projects, you still can publish the BusinessWorks projects on the machine where BusinessWorks registers to TIBCO Domain using the TIBCO Administrator GUI or deploys with REST service.

Prerequisites

It creates a TIBCO Domain, and starts TIBCO Hawk® services and a TIBCO Administrator server. Refer to TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for TIBCO Administrator User’s Guide for creating and configuring a TIBCO Enterprise Administrator component.
