Description

Below are some of the Enhancement Requests (ERs) which we have introduced in TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks (BW) 5.16.1

  • As part of BW 5.6.1 Hotfix-01 following Enhancements have been included :
Jira Description Enhancement Details Additional comments
BW-20287 Create a separate flag for enabling OTEL traces The property for enabling opentelemetry traces has changed from the following
java.property.bw.engine.opentelemetry.enable=true to
java.property.bw.engine.opentelemetry.traces.enable=true
With BW 5.16.1 HF-01, enabling OpenTelemetry tracing now requires using the java.property.bw.engine.opentelemetry.traces.enable=true property.

New Deployments:
For applications deployed with BW 5.16.1 HF-01, this property should be added to the BWEngine.tra file (located in TIBCO-Home/BW/5.x/bin). Newly deployed applications will inherit this setting from BWEngine.tra.

Existing Deployments: For applications already deployed, this property needs to be added to their respective application .tra file (located in TIBCO_HOME/tra/domain/domainname/applications).

Migration: If your environment is upgraded from BW 5.16.1 GA, BW 5.16.0 GA, or BW 5.15.1 HF-02 onwards and uses the older java.property.bw.engine.opentelemetry.enable=true property, it is recommended to replace it with the new java.property.bw.engine.opentelemetry.traces.enable=true property in both the BWEngine.tra and relevant application .tra files as needed.

Applying this change requires restarting the affected deployed applications.
