43.How do wait-notify resources work ?

Basically wait and notify should share a common notification configuration which is just a schema definition for data that will be passed from notifier to waiter.

46.What does ' Success if no matching condition' transition mean ?

between two nodes N1 and N2, there are 3 success transitions with condition and there is no success transition without condition. If none of the conditions match then a 'Success if no matching condition' transition can be used.
Also if there is a success transition and also success transitions with condition and if the condition matches then both the success transition (no condition) as well as the transition(s) with matching conditions are followed. So you can use 'Success if no matching condition' to prevent duplicate paths of execution.

47.What are the modes of TIBCO BW Installations ?

• GUI mode
• Console mode
• Silent mode

49.What is the role of TRA?

TRA stands for TIBCO Runtime Agent.
The TRA has two main functions:

• Supplies an agent that is running in the background on each machine.

Services can be invoked in several ways.

• A one-way operation is executed once and does not wait for a response.
• A request-response operation is executed once and waits for one response. In a request-response service, communication flows in both directions. The complete interaction consists of two point-to-point messages—a request and a response. The interaction is only considered complete after the response has arrived.
• Publication (notification) means an operation sends information on an as-needed basis, potentially multiple times.
• Subscription means incoming information is processed on an as-needed basis, potentially multiple times.

53.What is vcrepo.dat?

TIBCO Designer creates a file named vcrepo.dat in the project root directory when you first save the project. This file is used to store properties such as display name, TIBCO Rendezvous encoding, and description. This file can be used for identification in place of the project root directory and can be used as the repository locator string (repoUrl).
