How to check the application connection in Tibco EMS broker

Using tibemsadmin (Admin Tool)

The most direct method is using the tibemsadmin command-line tool that comes with EMS.

Steps:

tibemsadmin -server tcp://<host>:<port>

• Replace <host> and <port> with the actual EMS broker hostname and port (default is usually tcp://localhost:7222).
• If authentication is enabled, you’ll be prompted for a username and password.

Example:

tibemsadmin -server tcp://localhost:7222

If the connection is successful, you’ll be dropped into the EMS admin shell (>) where you can issue commands like:

show connections
