Creating Distribution Grid Libraries

TIBCO does not provide the full installation of the JBOSS EAP software. You must create the distribution by using your own copy of JBOSS.

Prerequisites

These files are required for creating the distribution grid libraries:

JBOSS Software: TIBCO does not provide the full installation of the JBOSS software to build the distribution. You must create the distribution by using your own copy of the software downloaded from the Redhat website https://developers.redhat.com/products/eap/download/ .

grid-libray.xml file: Refer example JBOSS EAP Distribution Grid-library.xml file for a sample grid-library.xml file.

Create a temporary directory named jboss-eapx.y.z-distribution-gridlib.
Download the full installation of the JBoss EAP software, and extract the compressed file into the temporary directory.
The extracted download of the JBoss EAP software contains a single directory with the name jboss-eap-x.y.z. Rename this directory jboss-eap.
Create a grid-library.xml file referring one of the examples from JBoss EAP Distribution Grid-library.xml File.
Put the grid-library.xml into the top level of the temporary directory.
The temporary directory now contains the grid-library.xml and a jboss-eap directory.
Create an archive of the temporary directory. It can be an archive, or a gzipped TAR archive. Note that the archive should contain the grid-library.xml and jboss-eap directory at the top level, and not the temporary directory itself.
Ensure the archive is named jboss-eapx.y.z-distribution-gridlib.zip or .tar.gz. This is the completed distribution grid library for installation on your broker.
