Resolution: ======== The property be.engine.hotDeploy.enabled is not relevant when you want to deploy/update your decision tables (classes).
To update/reload the new decision tables you have to use the JConsole (tab MBeans --> com.tibco.be --> Cluster --> <cluster> --> Tab Operations --> button "loadAndDeploy")
The engine will reload/load the Decision table class files from the specified location in your TRA file - property be.engine.cluster.externalClasses.path.
You have to uncomment the following JMX settings in the TRA file of the inference agent.
java.property.com.sun.management.jmxremote=true java.property.com.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false # portnumber required ex. 5599 (when set to 0 a random port will be used) java.property.com.sun.management.jmxremote.port=<port> java.property.com.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
