Creating a Deployment Configuration XML File

Create a deployment configuration properties XML file for either an EAR deployment or for an archive continuous deployment.

1. In TIBCO_HOME/tra/tra_version/bin, run the following command:

   AppManage –export –ear EarFile.ear -out DeploymentConfig.xml

2. Edit the file and set the value for publishing.
3. Create a ZIP file with the file EarFile.ear and DeploymentConfig.xml.

   For details about the creation of the DeploymentConfig.xml file, refer to the TIBCO Runtime Agent documentation, Scripting Deployment User’s Guide.

   Note: A CustomFolder.properties file put in the zip archive can specify the deployment path. For example create the CustomFolder.properties file with content "ApplicationFullPath=aaa/bbb/ccc".

   When the deployment path is not specified then the deployed EAR/application files can be found in the root folder level of Application Management in TIBCO Administrator.

   When the EAR application is deployed to the runtime the project files are placed in the folder structure according to the file folder structure defined in the properties file, xml file, or EAR in the zip file.

   These files can also be uploaded separately and then deployed, undeployed, started, and stopped by HTTP REST request. Refer to the section on Deployment of Archives Directly to Endpoints - Continuous Deployment for more information.
