Best Practices for Updating Your Tableau Server Computer

 

For versions prior to 2018.2, tabadmin must be run from the Tableau Server bin directory. By default, your bin directory is located at C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Server\<version>\bin

  • Where <version> is your version of Tableau Server.
  • For example, go to the Tableau Server 10.3 bin directory by typing the following: cd C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Server\10.3\bin

For RMT Server, rmtadmin must be run from the Tableau master directory. By default, your bin directory is located at C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Resource Monitoring Tool\Master

  • Where <version> is your version of Tableau Server.
  • For example, go to the Tableau master directory by typing the following: cd "C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Resource Monitoring Tool\Master"
