Starting TIBCO ActiveMatrix Dashboard

During installation, TIBCO Universal Installer renames the default service.bat (supplied by Apache Tomcat) in SPM_HOME/amxdashboard/tomcat/bin folder to service-preSPM.bat, and copies a new version of service.bat.

1. Edit SPM_HOME/amxdashboard/tomcat/bin/service.bat to substitute %TIBCO_EMS_HOME_ESC% with appropriate local TIBCO Enterprise Message Service installation path.
   Note: After you substitute, you can use this service.bat to start Apache Tomcat hosting the Service Performance Manager Dashboard application as a Windows Service using service.bat {install | uninstall} on a Windows command prompt. If you install it as a Windows Service, an entry - TIBCO ActiveMatrix Dashboard appears in the services list (services.msc).
2. To use Enterprise Message Service 8.0.0 or later, edit the file SPM_HOME/amxdashboard/tomcat/bin/setenv.bat (or setenv.sh) and service.bat and change "%EMS_HOME%/lib/jms.jar to %EMS_HOME%/lib/jms-2.0.jar.

   If you are working with a version earlier than 8.0, skip to the next step.

3. Start the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Dashboard using one of the following methods:
   • Click Start > All Programs > TIBCO > SPM_HOME > TIBCO Service Performance Manager <version> > Start TIBCO ActiveMatrix Dashboard.
   • Go to the SPM_HOME/amxdashboard folder and run the following executables:

     startamxdashboard.bat

4. After you start the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Dashboard, in your browser’s address box, enter a URL of the following format:

   <address>:<port_number>/amxdashboard
