TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Manager 3.1.x compatibility with TRA 5.8 HF6+

Environment

Product: TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Manager Version: 3.1.x OS: All Supported Operating Systems -------------------- Product: TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Agent Version: 3.1.x OS: All Supported Operating Systems --------------------

Resolution

To resolve the issue, the Policy Manager console WAR file needs to be updated and uploaded again after installing TRA 5.8 HF6 or higher. This is applicable only to WAR files uploaded to TIBCO Administrator.

Use the script that is attached to this article (Filename: repairPolicyManagerConsole.xml ) to update the WAR file. The instructions are given below:
  1. Install Apache Ant version 1.8.2 or later.
  2. Copy the attached script to the directory where Policy Manager console WAR file resides. By default, it is <TIBCO_HOME>/policymanager/<version>/administrator-plugins .
  3. In the directory <TIBCO_HOME>/policymanager/<version>/administrator-plugins, execute the following command:
ant -f repairPolicyManagerConsole.xml

An updated WAR file will be created along with a backup of the original file. Upload the new WAR file to TIBCO Administrator after removing the existing Policy Manager plug-in. See TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Manager Installation Guide > Installation & Configuration > Deploy the Console in TIBCO Administrator.
