Purpose of the Document

This document outlines the procedure to install TIBCO TRA and TIBCO ADB Adapter
on a UNIX machine.

Scope of the Document

The scope of this document is limited to the installation of TIBCO TRA and ADB
Adapter on a UNIX box.

Pre-requisites
1. Download JDK 1.5.0_22 from
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index-jdk5-jsp-142662.html
2. Place the downloaded tar file at any location on the UNIX server (eg: /app
directory)
3. Run the below command to extract the tar file
cd /app
tar -xvf jdk1.5.0_22.tar

Deployment Procedures
Installation of TIBCO TRA
1. Login to the adapter server with admin permissions. Tibco installation

requires the install user to have admin permissions

2. Copy the installable TIB_tra-suite_5.6.0_sol10_x86_64.tar to /tmp directory

of the adapter server. Space close to 750 MB is required.

3. Run the below commands through putty on the adapter server:

cd /tmp
chmod 775 *.tar

4. tar xvf TIB_tra-suite_5.6.0_sol10_x86_64.tar. It should unzip to provide

the below files.

i. Designer.5.6.0-simple_sol10_x86_64.jar, 14753461 bytes,

28816 tape blocks
ii. x TRA.5.6.0-simple_sol10_x86.jar, 50277069 bytes, 98198 tape
blocks
iii. x TRA.5.6.0-suite_sol10_x86.bin, 49082102 bytes, 95864 tape
blocks
iv. x TRA.5.6.0-suite_sol10_x86.jar, 7648194 bytes, 14938 tape
blocks
v. x hawk.4.8.1-simple_sol10_x86_64.jar, 33552203 bytes, 65532
tape blocks
vi. x jre.1.5.0-simple_sol10_x86_64.jar, 45441360 bytes, 88753
tape blocks
vii. x tibrv.8.1.1-simple_sol10_x86.jar, 116169478 bytes, 226894
tape blocks
viii. x tpcl.5.6.0-simple_sol10_x86.jar, 70787784 bytes, 138258
tape blocks
5. There is a bug in the running of the bundled JRE so please ensure you have
access/permissions to an existing JDK on the system.
i. chmod 755 *.jar
ii. chmod 755 *.bin
*Note: TRA 5.6 requires JDK 1.5; it does not work with JDK 1.6
6. Follow the below screenshots to complete the installation:

Please ensure that the directory (eg:/app/il3/tibco) has atleast 1GB free space

This completes the installation of Tibco TRA.

Installation of TIBCO ADB Adapter

1. Copy the ABD Adapter installable TIB_adadb-suite_6.0.0_sol10_x86.tar to
/tmp folder of the adapter server.
2. Run the below commands
chmod 755 *.tar
tar xvf TIB_adadb-suite_6.0.0_sol10_x86.tar
chmod 755 *.jar
chmod 755 *.bin
./adadb.6.0.0-suite_sol10_x86.bin

-is:javaconsole

-is:javahome

<JAVA_HOME>

-is:javaconsole -console -log \#

(eg:./adadb.6.0.0-suite_sol10_x86.bin

-is:javaconsole

/app/il3/jdk1.5.0_22 -is:javaconsole -console -log \#)

-is:javahome

This completes the installation of Tibco ADB Adapter 6.0.

Conclusion
This procedural document details out the steps to be performed to install TIBCO
TRA and ADB Adapter on a UNIX machine. It also shows how to handle the
incompatibility of the bundled JRE by pointing the installer to JDK 1.5.
