Adding Spotfire Web Player instances
After installing and trusting a node manager, you create the Spotfire Web Player service and add the number of Spotfire Web Player instances that you want to make available. The Spotfire Web Player instances can then be accessed on any computer in the network.
Before you begin
- You have installed and trusted a node manager. For instructions, see Installing a node manager interactively and Trusting a node.
- You have deployed client packages corresponding to the operating system of your node manager host to Spotfire Server. For instructions, see Deploying client packages to Spotfire Server.
- If you are running the Web Player instance on a Linux host, you have installed the required additional packages as described on Running Web Player or Automation Services on Linux.
- The Spotfire Server and the node manager are up and running.
Note: For production environments, we strongly advise that you deploy
each of the different types of Spotfire services on separate, dedicated
computers (physical computers, virtual machines, or containers).
If you still decide to deploy different services on the same computer (for example, for testing purposes), you must manage the resource allocation of the processes so they do not conflict with each other.
Procedure
What to do next
- If applicable, install Spotfire Automation Services.
- For information on the remaining setup tasks, see "Post-installation steps" in the Spotfire Server help.
- To use external actions with TIBCO Cloud™ Integration, or to access TIBCO Cloud™ Data Streams on the service, see "Configuring Spotfire Web Clients for OAuth2 with TIBCO Cloud™" in theSpotfire Server help.
