After installing and authorizing a node manager, you can install the
TERR service. Any computer on the network can access the
TERR service.
Before you begin
- You have installed and authorized a node manager. See the topics "Installing a node manager" and "Trusting a node" in the
TIBCO® Spotfire Server Installation and Administration Help.
- Spotfire Server and the node manager are up and running.
- You have deployed the
TERR service SDN into the deployment area of your
Spotfire Server. For information about deploying the SDN, see the topic "Adding software packages to a deployment area" in the
TIBCO Spotfire® Server Installation and Administration Help.
Important:
- You can install the
TERR service on a node manager server running an operating system (OS) that is different from that of your Spotfire Server.
- Do not install the
TERR service on a node manager server that is running other services.
- You must install every TERR service on node manager servers that are running the same OS.
- If needed, you can run a different service (such as Spotfire Service for Python or the Web Player service) on a node manager server with a different OS.
- Optional: You have created and imported a custom configuration for the
TERR service.
Procedure
-
Log in to
Spotfire Server, select your deployment area, and click
Nodes & Services.
-
In the
Nodes view, select the node to which you want to add the
TERR service.
A running service displays a green circle with a check mark next to the selected node manager.
In the
Installed services area, the name of the node manager is displayed in the lower-right pane of the window.
-
Click
Install new service.
-
Make your selections in the
Install new service dialog box:
-
Under
Deployment area, select the area where you deployed
TERR service.
Note: Administrators often create a Test deployment area to use as a staging server.
-
Under
Capability, select
TERR.
-
Under
Configuration, select the service configuration to apply to the service.
Note: In most cases, this is the default configuration, unless you have created a custom configuration. See the
TIBCO Spotfire® Server Installation and Administration Help for more information on creating a custom configuration.
-
Under
Number of instances, leave the option set to
1.
The
TERR service can have only one instance per node. If you set it to a value other than
1, the service does not work as expected.
One
TERR service instance can serve multiple users simultaneously. See the
Custom configuration properties for more information.
-
Under
Port, you can change the default as needed.
-
Under
Name, provide a name for this service.
-
Click
Install and start.
To view the progress of the installation, click the
Activity tab.
The service is installed and started.
