Log in to TIBCO Enterprise Administrator

You can use the Web UI to connect to the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator server.

Prerequisites

You must start the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator server before logging into the Web UI. Open the command prompt and navigate to <TIBCO_HOME>. Run <TIBCO_HOME>\tea\<version>\bin\tea.exe. You must also start the TIBCO Security Server agent to monitor the product on the Web UI.

Password Policies

Following are the constraints on creating a password:
  • The length of the password should be between 1 and 128 characters.
  • You cannot reuse the past 5 passwords.
  • Your account gets locked after 10 failed attempts. The admin account is the only exception to this rule, but the admin account experiences a lag of 1 second on every login after 10 failed attempts.
  • You must reset a password after a lockout because it cannot be changed.

Procedure

  1. Open a browser and navigate to the URL http://localhost:8777/tea/, where localhost is the default hostname and 8777 is the default port number.
    Note: The default port number and other settings can be changed by modifying the settings in tss.conf file that is available under <TIBCO_CONFIG_HOME>\tibco\cfgmgmt\tss\conf.
  2. Enter your Login credentials.
    The default username is admin and the default password is admin.
    On successful authentication, the landing page is displayed. The username with which you have logged in is shown as a menu option in the title pane. The landing page displays cards with information on the general details, users, agents, machines, and products exposed to the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator server. The Products pane shows TIBCOSecurityServer as one of the products registerd with TIBCO Enterprise Administrator.
    Note: The default timeout for a session is 30 minutes.
