How to Configure TIBCO Enterprise Message Service with Fault Tolerance on Azure

The purpose of the document is to provide a guide to install, configure, and run TIBCO Enterprise Message Service^TM (EMS) in a fault-tolerant configuration on Microsoft Azure. In addition, the document will provide the steps and expected results for testing EMS F/T on Azure.

The document will outline:

• Setting up Red Hat Linux virtual images on Azure
• Setting up the shared file system in Azure
• Setting up the CIFS/SMB or NFSv4 mount on the Red Hat Linux and Windows Server VMs with optional TLS encryption
• Installing and configuring EMS for F/T on both platforms
• Tuning EMS for Azure

Running tests on both platforms for:
