Enabler for Adapter for Files
TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files is complementary software used with TIBCO Silver Fabric to configure and publish components that are necessary to run projects based on TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for Files.
A TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack is an entity that runs inside TIBCO Silver® Fabric. It executes all the components necessary to publish the TIBCO® Adapter for Files platform and to publish TIBCO® Adapter for Files projects.
A TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack consists of a TIBCO Administrator component, and one or more TIBCO® Adapter for Files components.
Prerequisite for creating the TIBCO Adapter for Files component, you must first create a TIBCO Administrator component. 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 Administrator component.
To build and run a TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files components , you must perform the following tasks:
- Create and publish one TIBCO Administrator component. Refer to TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for TIBCO Administrator User’s Guide for creating and configuring a TIBCO Administrator component.
- Create and publish one or more Adapter for Files Components. Refer to Creating ActiveMatrix Adapter for Files Components.
- Create a TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack. Refer to Creating a TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack.
- Set a dependency to the TIBCO Administrator Component for each Adapter for Files Components. Refer to Setting Dependency Requirements.
- Optionally you may set rules for TIBCO Silver Fabric Engine to publish based on engine statistics.
After completing these tasks, you can run and when necessary update a TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack. Refer section Running TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Stacks for information on how to run and update a stack.
- Creating ActiveMatrix Adapter for Files Components
This Component will perform the following tasks: - Creating a TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack
A TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack contains one (only one) TIBCO Administrator Component. - Setting Dependency Requirements
For each Adapter for Files Component, you must set dependency on the TIBCO Administrator Component. - Adapter for Files Statistics
Silver Fabric Engines may be set to scale automatically based upon Adapter for Files Component statistics. On the Stack, you can define Threshold Activation rules that add or remove TIBCO Silver Fabric Engines based on Component statistics tracked during runtime. - Running TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack
After creating Stack, it should be published. - Updating TIBCO Silver Fabric Enabler for Adapter for Files Stack
When a Stack is published and running, you can still make changes to the Stack such as adding other components, changing allocation rules, changing threshold activation rules, or deploying and starting archives on the runtime Adapter for Files (Unix/Win) Application instantiated on the Engine. - Continuous Deployment Life Cycle
The continuous deployment life cycle has four REST operations that may be executed using cURL methods.
