Postinstallation for BusinessWorks 5.x Enablers

To avoid a server restart of the broker, the grid libraries should be copied to the SILVERFABRIC_HOME\webapps\livecluster\deploy\resources\gridlib\directory in the following order:

Note: Grid libraries should be copied in the following order:
  • Distribution compressed files
  • SilverFabric_bw_componentType_<enabler_version>.zip
  • SilverFabric_bw_container_<enabler_version>_gridlib.zip

These file name and version numbers are provided as a guide. Your file names and the versions of your files may vary depending on the currently available release.

Get the Distribution Compressed files

The distribution archives may be obtained from either the installation media or from the TIBCO official download site, https://download.tibco.com. Specific sets of distribution files for each operating system platform is used as a deployment target.

The distribution files ensure that the proper TIBCO product installer is used during deployment. Choose the sets of compressed archives for your intended deployment target platforms.

  1. Download the TIBCO Silver® Fabric Enabler for ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Distribution and the required product distributions available in the BusinessWorks section of the TIBCO official download site https://edelivery.tibco.com

    They are named according to the current version release number and the operating system supported with a name as the following : TIB_SilverFabric_bw_5.13.0_0_win_x86_distribution_gridlib.zip TIB_SilverFabric_tra_5.10.0_1_win_x86_distribution_gridlib.zip TIB_SilverFabric_rv_8.4.4_0_win_x86_vc10_distribution_gridlib.zip TIB_SilverFabric_hawk_5.2.0_0_win_x86_distribution_gridlib.zip

  2. Download the TIBCO Administrator - Enterprise Edition Distribution for TIBCO Silver Fabric grid library files available from the components on the TIBCO download site:https://edelivery.tibco.com

  3. Without extracting the files, copy all of the distribution files directly to:SILVERFABRIC_HOME/webapps/livecluster/deploy/resources/gridlib/

Copy the Container Compressed files

First, get the TIBCO Administrator container .zip files from the installation folder of TIBCO Silver® Fabric Enabler for TIBCO Administrator™ - Enterprise Edition, that is, SFTA_HOME\<enabler version>\gridlib.

Get the BusinessWorks container .zip files from the directory after installation: SFBW_HOME\<enabler version>\gridlib

Copy the container compressed files from there to the following directory: SILVERFABRIC_HOME\webapps\livecluster\deploy\resources\gridlib\

For Silver Fabric running on a Unix or Linux based platform the container grid libraries should be copied to the analogous directory:/opt/tibco/fabric/webapps/livecluster/deploy/resources/gridlib/

Alternatively, the distribution files may be dropped into any directory accessible to Silver Fabric as long as it is specified for the Silver Fabric Administrator. Refer to the Silver Fabric documentation, for more information on how you may set another location for the distribution files.
